I love what I call “sweet side dishes”. You know the ones. They are technically called a “salad” but are so sweet they could double as dessert. I make a ton of different ones, especially in the summer. They are perfect for picnics or cookouts, especially if you want to make them ahead and take them. This one reminds me of getting treats off the ice cream truck as a kid!

1 box orange Jell-O
1 box instant vanilla pudding
