Recipe by LexingtonMom

I know some people are Jello purists, but for those who like all the pizzazz this recipe has a great balance of yummy add-ins. Great for potlucks or Easter dinner. For lower cal version, use sugar-free jello, low fat sour cream, and substitute Splenda for sugar. The layering time is included in preparation estimate, but not the chill time after completion.
