Jell-O and Onions



Opposites attract, so they say. What would naughty be if not for a bit of nice? So it is with flavors; just the right touch of acid can provide a welcome tang to a bland dish — hence Sweet and Savory.

It appears the culinary geniuses at Jell-O followed this principal when inventing this doozy: Three Pepper Salad. Why eat peppers and onions by themselves as nature intended when you can enhance their piquancy with Lemon Jelly? If there’s anything one always hankers for in a bowl of Jell-O, it’s green onions and the faint addition of non-stick cooking spray.

The recipe they provide makes 10 servings, so even the most reticent need not go without.
