Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or low-fat both work)
- 1 box (3 oz / 85 g) orange gelatin (Jell-O) — dry powder, don’t prepare
- 1 cup whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
- 1 can (8 oz / 225 g) mandarin oranges, drained well
- Optional add-ins:
- ½ cup mini marshmallows
- ¼ cup crushed pineapple, drained
- ¼ cup cottage cheese (classic fluff style)
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt + dry orange gelatin until smooth.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping.
- Stir in mandarin oranges (and any optional add-ins).
- Chill for at least 1 hour to let it set.
- Serve cold and try not to eat it all straight from the bowl 😆
Why it works (even if you hate Greek yogurt)
- The gelatin completely masks the tang
- Whipped topping makes it light and fluffy
- Tastes like a creamsicle 🍦🍊
Make it lighter
- Use fat-free Greek yogurt
- Use sugar-free orange gelatin
- Swap whipped topping for extra yogurt (less fluffy, still good)
Flavor swaps
- Strawberry gelatin + strawberries
- Lemon gelatin + blueberries
- Pineapple gelatin + crushed pineapple
