This didn't go over to well at Thanksgiving dinner.I noticed people that took it really didn't eat it all or didn't take 2nds.I came home with a full bowl of it ,only to throw it all out.Sorry I thought the idea of pumpkin jello sounded good,but I really didn't enjoy the lemon flavor mingled with the pumpkin.Maybe making it with unflavored gelatin would be better.Thanx for sharing!

A very nice, unusual way to serve up something 'pumpkin,' while being simple to make! Served it as a side dish of jello, but it has all the makings of a wonderful dessert, too! Thanks for sharing! [Made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in this Spring's Pick-A-Chef]
