This is an easy and delightful dish that is light and can be served as a salad or a dessert.
It only calls for 4 ingredients!
And it can be whipped up in just minutes. Ya gotta love that about any recipe!
Of course you have the option of not making it sugar free if that kind of thing doesn't agree with you, but it's also one of those dishes that everyone will come back wanting more of...and most won't even know it's sugar free.
It tastes like the frozen treat made with vanilla ice cream and orange sherbet.

So easy and so good. I used to love the ones you get on a stick, too. Will have to try this one. Thanks.
I love the simplicity of this recipe and that it only requires 4 ingredients! What a healthy treat :)
I love all the sugar-free desserts you share. We all need a guilt-free treat every now & then.
I love this recipe! I made it with fresh strawberries & sf strawberry jello. My suggestion would be to chop them up into small pieces & then be sure they are very fresh. I cut mine in 1/4. They were a few days old when I used them & some molded on top of the salad (not covered w/ jello). I will definitely make again, just be sure I use fresher berries. ;)
Sugar free...aned fruit?
My step-grandmother used to make something similar, and I loved it. Instead of the pudding, she used cottage cheese. (I've made it as well, and I always use 1% or 2%, and prefer the large curd when I can find it.) It's so good that I make it "just because", and not because I'm trying to watch calories or lose weight.
My Mom used to make this when we were young. She would use apricot jello, shredded pineapple, and cottage cheese on top of the ingredients you mentioned. It always had us going back for more.
