Strawberry Pudding/Jello

Another one of my staples. This is the recipe I brought to the Dahl Family Party last year and a few of you asked for the recipe. For those I forgot to give it to, here it is. My kids love it... which, as you all know says a lot for the picky eater population.

2 and 3/4 c. water - bring to a boil
Once the water is boiling, add the following 3 pkg of pudding/jello:

• 1 box tapioca pudding (small box)
• 1 box cook & serve vanilla (calls for small box, but I can only find cook & serve in a large box and I use the whole thing and it works fine)
• 1 box strawberry jello (small box)

Boil the three pkgs of jello/pudding for 4 minutes. Put in refrigerator until thick (I've found that an hour is perfect - no more or it gets too thick, no less or it doesn't set). Add a medium tub of cool whip at the end of that hour and at least 2 cups of sliced frozen strawberries.

I've never tried anything but the strawberry, but my friend suggested using different jellos and fruits. i.e. sub out the strawberry jello for orange jello and instead of strawberries, use mandarin oranges, or blueberry jello with blueberries, etc.
