Ultra easy jell-o salad

This jell-o salad is always a hit at our family gatherings.  You can do it with a variety of fruits.  We have have done blackberries, raspberries, and peaches.  Blackberry and Raspberry were the best, peach... not so much.  It would probably be really good with strawberries; we just haven't tried it yet.


What you need:

1 large box of jello
1 small box of vanilla cook and serve pudding
8 oz whipping cream (one container of cool whip)
1 package of the same fruit as your jell-o
3 cups water.

What to do:

Combine 3 cups cold water with the jello and the cook and serve pudding.  Mix well.  Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.  Be careful, it can boil over very easily.  Pour mixture into a mixing bowl and chill until it is firm.  Using an electric mixer, beat the jell-o until there are not large chunks.  Fold in the whipping cream and then fold in the fruit.  That's it.  Enjoy!
