How to Make high-protein jello hack
- Using a liquid measuring cup, carefully measure 1 cup of water and pour it into a small saucepan. Heat the water on the stove over medium heat until it reaches a rolling boil.
- In a medium mixing bowl, pour the pack of low-sugar jello. Slowly add the boiled water to the jello powder, using a whisk to stir continuously for 2-3 minutes until the powder is completely dissolved.
- Allow the jello mixture to cool slightly for about 5 minutes. Then, add the 170g of vanilla Greek yogurt to the bowl, using a silicone spatula to fold it into the jello mixture until fully combined and smooth.
- Pour the combined mixture into a glass or silicone mold of your choice. Carefully place the mold in the refrigerator and let it set for at least 4 hours or until firm.
