Jello Pudding Salad

Here's the recipe for the jello salad I used at the reunion. I've been getting a lot of delicious recipes from http://www.justgetoffyourbuttandbake.com. Jonna was in my home ward for a time. I just copied & pasted this right from her blog:

This jello pudding recipe, is quick, easy & delicious. The thing I like about this recipe, is you can use any flavor of jello & use any fruit you like. I’ve used raspberry jello with frozen raspberries & huckleberries in this picture. It’s really good with orange jello, pineapple chunks & mandarin oranges as well. I also like to sprinkle the top with nuts, before serving. Use your imagination!

YOU WILL NEED:
1 Small package of Raspberry jello
1 Small pkg. vanilla pudding (not instant)
2 1/2 c. water
9 ounce Cool Whip
2 cups frozen raspberries, optional
1 cup huckleberries, optional

(Use any flavor jello & fruit you like)
Orange jello with mandarin oranges is very good
Bring to boil jello, pudding, and water. Cool completely, then fold in Cool Whip. Add fruit, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Pasta Carbonara

"Hmmm, two pasta recipes in a row?" you say. You must say that because you haven't been following every post and don't already know from the previous post that I accidentally-on-purpose bought too much tortellini at the store. While Carbonara is most often made with long, slender pasta like spaghetti, linguine, fettucine, etc.....well, I had to do something with that tortellini! I therefore give you use #2 for cheese tortellini you need to use up--Carbonara. Now don't get too wigged out by the fact that the sauce in this recipe is made from eggs that will appear to not be cooked. We don't judge based on looks around here, so I'll thank you to conform to that while using this recipe. The eggs are tempered , which essentially means that they are not raw, but sorta look that way still. I promise it is delicious. But if you need the reassurance, mentally, that you aren't eating raw eggs, I give you my solemn assurance. Now you ma...

Spinach Waffles

Spinach in waffles? Gross, right? Only for people trying to lose weight, right? WRONG. Right? Okay, I see how thoroughly confused you are now. And I know what you're thinking: "wait, she can see me?? Creep!" Oh, you weren't thinking that? Weird, you should be--that IS creepy. But I digress...we were speaking of spinach in a standard, non-spinachy food. The thing is, it's SOOOO good you guys! I even made regular waffles side by side to compare, and my kids (my KIDS!) said the spinach ones were better (cue jaw drop, gasp, and fake fainting spell). Full disclosure, one (out of 6) of the kids said they were gross, but she refused to actually taste any, so we just won't pay any attention to her. She's kind of in the middle anyway, so she's used to it.... (cue awkward, judging silence from the reader). Even if you're kids refuse to taste them, though, you have to be a grown-up and at least try them. Try them, you will se...
