Strawberry Fruit Snacks

Mmmmmm, I love fruit snacks. I think if I were to try a store-bought fruit snack now, I'd be disgusted. But I love making my own; they're easy, they're virtually sugar free (everything tastes too sweet nowadays), and, because they're made with lemons, they satisfy my cravings for lemonade!



 My recipe is an adaption of two that I liked. This one was delicious, but didn't hold up well in heat. This one is also good.

                                              (These are not the snacks; they're just strawberries)



                                       --Strawberry Fruit Snacks--

1/3 c. Strawberry puree
1/2 c. Lemon juice
2/3 c. Strawberries, frozen or fresh.
1 Tbsp. Honey or sugar
4 Tbsp. Gelatin

Heat lemon juice, fruit puree and strawberries over low to medium heat until berries are soft and mushy. Add honey and continue to cook until berries are completely mush (feel free to smash against the side of the pot). Remove from heat and whisk in gelatin slowly, to avoid clumping. Pour into an 8x8 glass dish and chill until firm.
