Vegan Jello (Gelatin Free Jello)
This is a great vegan recipe for Jello! Jello is a simple easy snack that most kids love. Instead of adding gelatin, I am using Agar-Agar. It is an excellent vegetarian alternative for gelatin. It's a good snack for kids and adults alike.

Notes
Notes
- Pour the juice in the dish while it is hot as Jello will start getting set as it cools.
- I have experimented many times to give the right texture to the Jello and this combination comes out just right. Adding more agar-agar or not adding water with the juice will make jello very firm.
- Store bought orange juice did not work well for this recipe, but fresh orange juice works great.
