Celebrate A Bit of Frankenstein

If you are a fan of sci-fi or Frankenstein then you may all ready be aware of the fact that today is  Mary Godwin Wollstonecraft Shelley birthday. Shelley is the author behind the novel Frankenstein. Today we celebrate the creation and the vision of the this author. In honor of the birthday I am sharing a fun Taste of Home recipe that may help you cool down a bit as well.


  • 2 packages (6 ounces each) lime gelatin
  • 2-1/2 cups boiling water
  • 3/4 cup bean sprouts
  • 12 orange jelly beans
  • 6 red jelly beans
  • 3 tablespoons sour cream
  • 12 miniature marshmallows
  • Purple kale, optional
 

In a bowl, dissolve gelatin in water. Pour into an 8-in. square pan that has been coated with cooking spray. Refrigerate for 4 hours or until firm. Cut into six rectangles; place each on a plate. Decorate with bean sprouts for hair, orange jelly beans for eyes an a red jelly bean for nose. Fill a small plastic bag with sour cream; cut a small hole in the corner of the bag. Pipe a jagged smile on face. Place marshmallows on side of head for bolts. Garnish plates with kale if desired. Yield: 6 servings.
