The mold I'd used to make Jell-O treats at Easter inspired me to include these unusual fun green "dinosaur eggs" on the party lunch menu. Instant pudding and cinnamon give the eggs a creamy look with speckles. —Robin Werner, Brush Prairie, Washington

Ingredients

2 packages (6 ounces each) lime gelatin
2-1/2 cups boiling water
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup cold milk
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix

2. Pour into a 13-in. x 9-in. pan coated with cooking spray. Refrigerate for 3 hours or until firm. Cut into ovals or use an egg-shaped cookie cutter.
