I’ve been making these desserts for years. They’re light yet filling. (I know, weird) This is also not only easy to make, but very inexpensive. You can make them as the regular gelatin or sugar free, as I do. The entire dessert seems to be totally different depending on the original flavor of the gelatin.
I hope you enjoy!

This is my recipe for Stewed Tomatoes. Since I’m diabetic, I have to be careful about how much sugar is in my food. This recipe substitutes Splenda for sugar, and I can eat it!
These are the ingredients. They aren’t overwhelming.
