Yes it does! I think I'll try it with just juice (still on liquids) for now. Dang, that sounds Excellent!!!

Is the unflavored Gelatin the Knox stuff? I've tried working with that before and it's lumpy and sticky. I never did get the hang of that stuff.

Is there like a Jell-O brand unflavored Gelatin for the cooking challenged?

Yep, the unflavored Gelatin is the Knox stuff. The key is to make sure the Water is BOILING when you start to mix it, and you MUST stir it for at least TWO FULL MINUTES. I set a kitchen timer whenever I make any kind of gelatin so I am sure I am stirring two full minutes.

I don't like that stuff. It still ends up lumpy and sticky. Doesn't Jello make an instant unflavored? That recipe sounds good but I'll get frustrated with Knox.

I swear, products like turkeys and knox see me coming and trick me before I even start.

I'm an old fashioned Knox girl (I get it from my mom, she's 81), so I'm not sure if Jello makes an unflavored, but I would expect they do.

Ahhhh turkeys. The secret there, get one of those Reynolds oven bags and follow the directions to the letter. Excellent turkey. Better yet, deep fry one, it's AMAZING! Better still, possibly the BEST idea for turkey: Go out for a turkey dinner. I've given up cooking for holidays a little while back. Now we go to a buffet (well, maybe we won't anymore) at either a local hotel, Zehnder's, or a Casino not far from the house up north. Much simpler, more choices, everyone's happy and best of all, NO CLEANUP!
