Jell-Oranges, Anyone?

This was another birthday party treat I made for Lily's first birthday. It's a fun, kid-friendly summer time snack. Have you guessed it? It's jello wedges in orange peels! So cool, right? They're prefect for any party, barbeque, or snack time. Or, for the adults with an inner child, add a fun (alcoholic) ingredient! ;)

Ingredients:
- Orange peels
- Jell-O gelatin (or any brand gelatin)

Other supplies:
- Muffin pans

Directions:
- Cut oranges in half (opposite direction of the orange wedges)
- Clean all the guts out, rinse, and pat dry with paper towel
- Place orange peel halves evenly over muffin pans
- In a bowl, make your gelatin, following the directions on the box
- Fill your orange peels almost to the top with the gelatin liquid
- Let them set COMPLETELY in the refrigerator
- Before serving, carefully cut the halves into two or three wedges and arrange on a festive serving platter! All done!

Tips:
- If you cut them navel to navel, they will be more flimsy- so cut across!
- The dryer the orange peel, the better the gelatin sticks!
- While cleaning the guts out of your orange peels, be careful as to not rip the navel out. Holes in your peels do you no good! (P.s. get creative with your orange guts! I.e. make juice, eat, make popsicles, you get the idea!)
- Use a variety of colors! The more, the merrier!!
- Only make one color at a time. You don't want the gelatin to set before it reaches your orange peels!
- For best results, if you're making these for a party, maybe them a day or so ahead and let them set until right before the party (provided you have the fridge space).
