Ingredients
- ½ cantaloupe
- small package sugar-free Jell-O (any flavor)
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 cup cold water
Instructions
- If the cantaloupe half is not already seeded, remove the seeds but do not slice it.
- Prepare the Jell-O gelatin according to the package directions. Place the prepared Jell-O gelatin in the refrigerator until cooled but not set, about 20 minutes.
- Pour the cooled gelatin into the cavity of the cantaloupe, cover it tightly with plastic wrap, and place the filled cantaloupe into the refrigerator until the Jell-O gelatin is set.
- You most probably will have leftover Jell-O gelatin. Simply pour it into small custard cups to serve as a dessert or a snack at another time.
- To serve, slice the cantaloupe thinly with a sharp knife and place the slices on a dessert plate.
