Pomegranate Jello with Cranberries

This exotic fruit contains delicious seeds, which are used in the following jello dessert recipe. You simply cut the pomegranate open and scoop out the delicious seeds. This is a great dessert for spring or summer because it is so refreshing.
Just because you have not made any pomegranate recipes before does not mean you should give this fruit a miss. Combining it with your favorite jello, berries and cream brings out the best flavor from this wonderful and exotic fruit. This recipe is simple to follow and very difficult to get wrong. Pomegranates have a very special and unique flavor and the orange jello, raspberry jello and berries used in this pomegranate recipe bring out the flavor perfectly.
The end flavor is not too different to a strawberry whip cream jello dessert, and the whip cream is served on the side so that its sweetness can contrast with the sharp pomegranate flavor. Raspberry, orange, and cranberry flavors enhance the pomegranate flavor and complete the dessert. You can make this recipe either in a large jello mold or in individual serving dishes.

The fruit will sink and the rind will float. Simply skim the rind off the top of the water and strain the fruit. You now have the pomegranate seeds for making an easy pomegranate jello.
