Low-Cal Gelatin Jewel Dessert

1 (3.25-ounce) package lime sugar-free gelatin
1 (3.25-ounce) package orange sugar-free gelatin
2 (3.25-ounce each) packages strawberry sugar-free gelatin - divided use
4 cups boiling water - divided use
2 cups cold water - divided use
1 (8-ounce) tub nondairy sugar-free whipped topping, thawed - divided use

1. Prepare lime, orange and one package of the strawberry gelatins in 3 separate bowls as directed on packages, using 1 cup of the boiling water and 1/2 cup of the cold water for each flavor.
2. Pour each flavored gelatin into a separate 8-inch square pan. Refrigerate until firm. Cut gelatin into 1/2-inch cubes.
3. Measure out 1 1/2 cups gelatin cubes from each flavor for a total of 4 1/2 cups. (Remaining gelatin cubes can be used for snacking, if desired.)
4. Add the remaining 1 cup boiling water to the remaining package of strawberry gelatin; stir until completely dissolved. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup cold water. Refrigerate until slightly thickened (the consistency of unbeaten egg whites). Fold in half of the whipped topping and the 4 1/2 cups gelatin cubes; stir gently until well blended. Pour into 9 x 5-inch pan which has been sprayed with cooking spray.
5. Refrigerate until firm, about 4 hours. Unmold.
6. Pipe remaining whipped topping on dessert to garnish, if desired. Cut into slices to serve. Store in refrigerator.

Makes 12 servings.
