When my girls were young they loved jello.  I hated to give them anything that was just food coloring, sugar and artifical flavoring.  So I made homemade “JelloÂ’ with fruit juices.

This one is grape, but you can substitute most juices for the grape. 

1- 12 oz can frozen grape juice concentrate, thawed

3 envelopes unflavored gelatin

1 1/2 cups (1 can) water  

Soften gelatin in grape juice. Boil the water, add the juice/ gelatin mixture and stir till gelatin dissolves. Remove from heat, pour into a lightly greased 9x13 pan and chill. Cut into squares when firm. Refrigerate in a covered container.

Variation: substitute frozen cranberry juice cocktail concentrate for grape juice. Or a 12 oz can frozen  apple, pear, apple, juice concentrate.
