Steps:
- Place the strawberries, water, honey, and lemon juice in a blender and puree until smooth.
- Scoop out 1/4 cup of the puree and place it in a small bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin over the bowl and mix it with the puree until well-combined.
- While the gelatin is blooming, place the remaining puree in a small pot and heat over medium high heat. When the puree is hot but not yet boiling, remove it from heat.
- Immediately add the bloomed gelatin and whisk until thoroughly combined.
- Divide the jello mixture between 3-4 small glass jars. I use either 4 ounce mason jars or 7 ounce tulip jars.
- Refrigerate for 2-3 hours, or until the strawberry jello has set.

EASY STRAWBERRY TARTS
A friend brought this to a pot luck and I had to try them myself. So easy, but they make such an impact. What a great way to enjoy fresh strawberries! You can also make a strawberry pie - just substitute a pie shell instead of the tart shells.

- Boil together corn starch, salt, and water until clear, stirring constantly.

LIGHT STRAWBERRY GELATIN PIE
There's plenty of sweet berry flavor in this refreshing dessert. Made with sugar-free gelatin and a graham cracker crust, the summery pie is easy to fix and attractive enough to serve to guests. I sometimes substitute fresh peaches and peach gelatin. -D. Smith, Feasterville-Trevose, Pennsylvania.
