A flavorful, festive Jello dish that perfectly compliments any Holiday meal!
Growing up, my mom made this every Christmas. We always called it our “Christmas Jello”. We only had it one time a year, at Christmas, and it was definitely one of my favorite things at the dinner table. Not only is it festive, but it can be changed up for any Holiday or any color/flavor of your choice. I have brought it to dinner parties and it was a hit!! Whichever colors you choose to use, I am sure it will be a hit!!
