CHRISTMAS RIBBON SALAD



Christmas Ribbon Salad image

Spirits are light at holiday time around Debra Stoner's home--and so are many of the meas she serves. "I make this dessert every year at Christmas," she informs from Carlisle, Pennsylvania. "It's one of my husband's favorites. I slimmed down the recipe by using sugar-free gelatin and reduced-fat topping."

HOLIDAY RIBBON GELATIN



Holiday Ribbon Gelatin image

I cut this out of a tast of home magazine. Layers of red and green make this a great holiday dish. Kids find it fun to eat and adults will love the combination of sweet/tart flavors. I have taken it to quite a few family holiday celebratons and I always take home an empty dish. Cooking time is the over night chill in fridge and the time for the lime layer to gel in fridge.

CLASSIC HOLIDAY RIBBON SQUARES (JELLO)



Classic Holiday Ribbon Squares (Jello) image

This red, white, and green jello is a classic addition to the holiday table (you can switch colors for other occasions). Recipe from "Celebrating 100 years of Jello." I speed-up the chilling time table by setting each bowl/pan over a larger bowl/pan of ice water (lots of ice). I do this with all my Jello and each stage is done in about 15-20 minutes. You need to check for required texture and not go by clock. I love making these layered desserts!

RIBBON JELLO



Ribbon Jello image

This is a family favorite, I can remember loving it from my first bite when I was a tiny tot. It makes a beautiful presentation when put in a glass 11x13 baking dish. It takes a few minutes every hour or so to tend to the 9 layers, but it will be worth every minute! Be sure to take copies of the recipe when you take this to your next party. Be assured people will ask for the recipe!

Tips:

  • Use fresh fruit: Fresh fruit will give your ribbon gelatin a more vibrant color and flavor. If you're using frozen fruit, thaw it completely before using.
  • Don't over-mix the gelatin: Over-mixing the gelatin will make it tough and rubbery. Stir it just until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  • Let the gelatin set completely: It's important to let the gelatin set completely before serving. This will take at least 4 hours, but it's best to let it set overnight.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the gelatin: A sharp knife will help you get clean, even slices of gelatin.
  • Serve the gelatin with your favorite toppings: Ribbon gelatin can be served with a variety of toppings, such as whipped cream, fresh fruit, or berries.
