Mango Lime Gelatin Gummies Recipe

As we hinted about in our recent fruit juice gelatin recipe, using gelatin in desserts and treats opens the door to an array of fun and tasty ways to enjoy fruits, and this recipe surely delivers. 

With just the right amount of tanginess and tropical feel from the mango and lime juice, these are perfect on a hot summer day. To top it off, they are simple and fun to prepare and a great way to involve the kids in the preparation.

Using gelatin here doesn't simply help create the gelatinous aspect but also makes it a great way to consume more of that gut and joint-healing food that's derived from collagen.

Again, as is usually the case with Paleo, it's a win-win situation where the food is both delicious and well as nutritious and healing at the same time. You should be able to find gelatin powder in the baking aisle of your supermarket.

We chose to use some marine life cookie cutters to make this even more fun to eat and a treat that kids will flock to.

They are also perfect to accentuate the tropical theme. You can, of course, prepare these with any fruits and create interesting combinations of color and taste. To replace the mango with a different fruit, simply use about 1 cup of fruit instead.
