Easy Stawberry Pudding Trifle--Help

[naekelsey]

I was thinking of doing the Easy Banana Pudding Trifle but changing it to the Easy Strawberry Pudding Trifle.

Does anyone know if there is such thing as strawberry pudding? I haven't. If not, is there a way to maybe make it??

I don't see it listed over on the jello.com site. If you do a google search for "strawberry pudding" there are a bunch of recipes.

I think I am going to take vanilla pudding and mix it with strawberries. Hope it works.

Strawberry recipesHere is a recipe I found online and it's from a diabetics dessert cookbook.

ENGLISH FRESH STRAWBERRY PUDDING

2 cups fresh strawberries, washed and hulled
2 tablespoons sugar
water
2 packages sugar-free strawberry flavored gelatin (3 oz. each)
4 cups low-fat frozen non-dairy whipped topping

Instructions:

In a small bowl, crush the strawberries with a fork. Sprinkle with the sugar. Mix, cover, and let stand for an hour. Drain the juice, reserving it in a measuring cup. Add enough water to make 1-1/2 cups of liquid. In a small saucepan, bring the liquid to a boil. Stir in the gelatin. Remove from heat. Stir until the gelatin dissolves. Let cool, then pour the gelatin over the strawberries. Stir. Fold the whipped topping into the strawberry mixture. Transfer to a soufflé dish or other serving dish.

Refrigerate for several hours before serving.

You can make vanilla or cheesecake flavored pudding, and add a packet of strawberry jello to the mixture.

That's what I do...put the dry jello in with the dry pudding then mix with the milk.

It turns out great!
