Gelatin Heavenly Hash (Jell-O Brand)

Submitted by AmyZoe

"I bought a bunch of jello on sale and didn't know what to do with it. I discovered Favorite Recipes Jello Brand Fun and Fabulous Recipes, and oila! I used orange gelatin, but you can use whatever flavor you want. I also substituted blueberries for the crushed pineapple (I didn't have any). Next time I'd like to try this with real whipped cream. I used sour cream (I didn't try it with non-dairy whipped topping). Very tasty stuff and simple to make. Cook time excludes chill time."
