Red, Whte and Blue treat

July 4th is nearly here....cook outs and fireworks..great fun. I have a couple great ideas for the day. These are so easy. Sorry, no pictures as I will be making these on the 4th but wanted to share them with you now.

NEED:
Red gelatin ( brand of your choice )
Tub of whipped topping
Blue gelatin ( brand of your choice)
**optional, blueberries and strawberries

*** if you can use a clear bowl for this it adds a great look to your table***

Make blue gelatin as directed (either in the bowl your are going to use or in a separate bowl and transfer it to the bowl you are going to use)

Place it in the refrigerator until firm.

Remove and top with a generous layer of the whipped topping and return to the refrigerator until well chilled.

Make the red gelatin as directed and set aside until it cool and starts to set. You can place it in the refrigerator for awhile. DO NOT ALLOW IT TO SET TO FIRM..you just want it to thicken.

VERY SLOWLY, spoon the red gelatin over the whipped topping to form a layer.

Place in refrigerator til completely firm.

You can make think layers or a series of thin layers following the above steps.

If you want to add some fruit; add the blueberries to the blue layer and strawberries to the red layer.

Very easy, very festive.

ENJOY!
