Jillian Michaels Gelatin Trick Recipe

A simple and effective pre-meal gelatin drink that helps curb appetite and support weight loss.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin powder
  • 8 ounces water
  • 1 teaspoon sugar-free flavored drink mix or 1 ounce fresh fruit juice
  • a few drops optional lemon or lime juice
  • optional stevia or other non-caloric sweeteners

Instructions

  1. Measure 1 tablespoon of unflavored gelatin into a small bowl and sprinkle the powder evenly over 2 tablespoons of cold water. Let it sit for 1 to 2 minutes to bloom.
  2. Heat 6 ounces of water until warm (about 120 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit) and pour over the bloomed gelatin. Stir until completely dissolved.
  3. Stir in your flavoring: 1 teaspoon of drink mix or 1 ounce of juice and a few drops of lemon. Adjust sweetness as needed.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a small cup or silicone mold and chill in the refrigerator for 10 to 20 minutes.
  5. Serve chilled or at cool room temperature, spooning or sipping as preferred.

Notes

For a colorful twist, try using berry flavoring. Remember to avoid using boiling water as it can damage flavor and texture.
