Orange Jello Stuff

I'm not sure what to call this.  However, I am certain that it (1) tastes great, (2) can be made quickly and (3) is very difficult to screw up.  All of which makes this a prefect "man" meal.

You will need one package of orange Jello, one package/bowl of Cool Whip (make sure to pronounce the "h" in Whip) and two small cans of mandarin oranges.

Make the Jello and let it sit in the fridge until it is cool.  I know this takes some time, but not actual cooking time so plan on cleaning out the garage or watching a game for a couple of hours. 

Once the Jello is firm, stir in the mandarin oranges and the Cool Whip. It should look sort of like this picture but with more orange and less whip.  Eat.

This is usually good for about a day.  After that some type of weirdness goes on and it gets sort of runny.

I traditionally make this at Thanksgiving but there is nothing to say you can't make it because it's Tuesday.

Enjoy.
