WeightWatchers Jello Fruit Wedges Recipe

What a fun way to eat Jello! The kids won’t be the only ones who will love these Jello orange wedges, they’ll be a hit with the whole family!

I’ve tried using other rinds as well but their taste is more bitter, so I think it’s better to stick to the orange flavor. If you make these and take pictures of the final result, please send them this way so we can all see how yours turned out!

Weight Watchers Jello Fruit Wedges recipe

Ingredients
8 medium-large oranges
4 (85 g) boxes orange flavor gelatin
2 1/2 cups boiling water

Preparation
1. Slice the oranges in half lengthwise (through the axis).
2. Carefully remove the pulp, while keeping the half rind fully intact.
3. Make sure that the orange rinds are dry (use paper towels to blot them).
4. Set each half rind upright in a muffin pan so that it can be filled with Jello.
5. Mix the gelatin with the boiling water.
6. When the gelatin is well dissolved, pour into the fruit before it begins to set (fill up as high as you can, as the Jello will shrink a little when cooling).
7. Carefully transfer to the fridge and let set according to the directions on the box (usually about three hours).
8. When the Jello is set, place the fruit open-side down on a cutting board, hold its shape with one hand and carefully slice in half lengthwise again to form quarters (you may use a serrated knife so you can keep the Jello intact and not smash the fruit).
