Jelly?

I have 4 packs of jelly that need using, I know if I just make normal jelly it won't get eaten!
Has anyone got any ideas/recipes?

Thanks
annie

    Got any evap? tootles posted a delish recipe for a jelly/evap dessert in this thread (post #5 )

    Make a trifle?

    Depending the flavour, you could make a lime or lemon jelly, added some grated cabbage and have it as a side salad.

    Mmmm. Trifle.

    Real cheap to make too with sponge fingers, a tin of cheapie fruit cocktail and a tin of cheapie custard!
  • jelly whip ( part set then whipped)
    milky whip ( as above but with evaporated milk)
    blamange ( make up with condensed milk)
    fizzy jelly ( with lemonade for the kids, or cava/lambrini for the adults, it's great, you don't feel like you're eating, you don't feel like your drinking and all of a sudden you get the giggles, met jelly in microwaive, add appropriate ammount of fizzy liquid, alcoholic or otherwise just substitute the water, then pop in the fridge)
