Tracy Metro's Rainbow Jello Treats Fill serving dish/glass/cup with water. Divide the amount of water by 9 (each layer). That measurement is the number of ounces per layer. Lay out Jello in this order: red, orange, green, blue, purple. Make Jello according to direction (using quick set technique) Through a funnel, pour the amount needed for each layer beginning with purple. Allow purple layer to set. Once set, mix milk, 1 tbs of sugar and gelatin according to recipe on box. This is the white layer which goes between every color. Through funnel, pour amount needed for white layer and allow to set. Continue in this manner making sure to go backwards through the rainbow. Top Jello rainbow with whipped cream and gold foil covered chocolate coin!
Who says meatballs have to have meat? After being roasted in the oven, the eggplant takes on a meaty, hearty flavor that is an excellent foundation for “meatballs.” In addition, I flavor them with the traditional basil, garlic, and bread crumbs (whole wheat, in this case). I do have one other unusual twist up my sleeve, though: I add some smashed white beans for texture and an extra boost of protein. Pair these meatballs with your favorite marinara sauce and I bet no one will even know the difference!
These are my husband’s favorite chocolate cookies. They are fudgy and decadent, and no one would ever guess that there are chickpeas (!) in the dough. The chickpeas replace both flour and eggs, making this a fantastic gluten-free dessert option. Add 2 tablespoons of flour to give these a cakelike texture.
