Naturally Sweetened Homemade Lemon Jello

This Naturally Sweetened Homemade Lemon Jello is a delicious jello recipe which is sweetened naturally with honey. When you make this, make sure you use light colored honey so that the flavor doesn’t overpower the jello. I also choose grass-fed gelatin which is free from GMOs, antibiotics and hormones.

To make this jello, start by pouring lemon juice and water into a saucepan. Add gelatin and heat until it dissolves. Add the honey and stir until it is completely dissolved. Pour the jello into a glass dish or mold and place in the refrigerator to chill until completely set. Enjoy!

Cannot print entire recipe & steps. I can remember the steps but it keeps me from printing to share with less fortunate individuals that don’t do computers at all. Lol yes there are still those dinosaurs walking the earth today!
