Multi-Layered Jello

I laughed at myself as I wrote the title because it's a joke that Mormons love their jello. Apparently it must be true if I'm actually posting about it. No, really, I just wanted to show off this pretty photo. Maybe it's just because I'm pregnant and really like food right now, but I've found myself taking photos of food lately. Odd. Oh, and that's mango on top, not cheese, to Matt's grateful relief after first seeing it.

The instructions are in the comment section for anyone who wants them. Kids seem to think it's pretty cool to make (according to my friend who gave the recipe).

Note: give yourself plenty of time for this recipe. It takes a little more than an hour per box of jello used.

Ingredients: 2-5 small boxes of jello (different colors) and 1/3-1 2/3 cups vanilla yogurt.

Instructions: Boil one cup of water. Mix in one box of jello until dissolved. Add 1/3 cup cold water (skip this if you want a more solid jello). Split jello in half. Add 1/3 cup cold water to one half and 1/3 cup vanilla yogurt in other half. Mix well. Pour yogurt half into clear glass dish (bowl, parfait dish, 9x13 or 8x8). Cool for 30 minutes. Carefully add clear half on top and cool for an additional 30 minutes. Repeat with each box of jello until desired layer is reached. For reference, I used three boxes for an 8x8 dish.
