Ingredients
- 1 6-oz package Strawberry Jell-O
- 2 cups boiling water
- 24 ounces frozen strawberries whole or sliced
- 1 banana
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cups sour cream, light or regular
- fresh strawberries to garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Empty the jello package into a large bowl. Carefully pour the boiling water over the top, then stir until the jello is dissolved.
- Add the frozen strawberries and stir until mostly thawed. Pour this mixture into a large blender.
- In a small bowl, roughly mash together the banana and lemon juice. Add this to the blender.
- Add the 2 cups of sour cream. Blend for about 30 seconds, some lumps are okay.
- Prepare a jello mold or a 10-12 cup bundt pan with nonstick spray. (Or just use a pretty bowl, no need to spray).
- Pour the jello into the prepared pan, cover tightly, and refrigerate for several hours or overnight, until completely chilled.
- To invert the jello, place a plate over the mold and flip. If the jello doesn't come out, fill a large bowl with hot water and hold the bottom of the mold in the water for no more than 1-3 seconds, then invert again. (This will help melt the outer edge, releasing the jello.)
- Serve the jello with fresh strawberries.
Notes
The frozen strawberry amount doesn't have to be exact. If your store sells 10 ounce packages, then buy 2 and call it good.
