I tried making this recipe this weekend. It took way longer than 3 hours to freeze, once it was frozen, I let it set out for 10 mins. but when I started scraping it with the fork - it was stringy. I don't have a clue why it didn't turn out - I followed the directions to the letter. Maybe I will have to try again....

Mine too a bit longer to freeze but it was worth it! A great alternative to ice cream & healthier too!

I have tried several different variations on flavor. You can do this with any flavor Jello and flavored water you prefer. Our fave is Peach. After mixing the ingredients, I pour it in ice cube trays. After they freeze completely, I remove the cubes and put them in freezer bags for later. I just pop 6 cubes in the food processor for a quick, low carb, low cal, no sugar treat for two! Did I mention Guilt-Free?

I tried this with lemon as directed and then tried it using strawberry jello and strawberry seltzer. Both were absolutely fantastic... a big hit with husband and in-laws (all on low carb/sugar-free diets). Now I keep some in the freezer for last minute snacks.

Enjoyable and light tasting. I unfortunatly had to make it with regular lemon JELLO as the light doesn't seem to be available in my area, but it turned out well, if higher in calories. The recipe really only serves 4 comfortably.
