This Quick Carrot Jello is a quick (ish) snack I like to make for those times when my sugar tooth is compelling me to eat an entire cake.
With only 60 calories (and a big dose of vitamin C & A) per serving, this Carrot Jell-O has likely warded off at least 237 lbs that I would have gained (as result of aforementioned cake) since I first discovered this killer jello combo.
Not going to make the menu of any Michelin stars, but we don’t always need to eat fancy, okay?!
