St. Paddy's Pot's O Gold- Edible treasure!


For your Pots-O-Gold, wash large limes and cut off top 1/3. Carefully scoop out insides with a spoon.(a grapefruit spoon would work nicely) Slice off a thin portion on the bottom so they stand upright.

Make lemon jello according to package, using an 8x8 in pan. When firm, cut into 1/2 inch cubes.
Put a pinch of sugar then a spoonful of whipped cream into the lime pots.
Then place cubes into lime pots. Adorable!

What to do with the scooped out lime flesh? Don't throw it out! Press out the juice and freeze juice in an ice cube tray. Once frozen, place cubes into a plastic freezer bag. Next time you need lime juice (hello margaritas!) for any recipe..there it is ! No wasting.
