Jillian Michaels Gelatin

A simple, low-calorie gelatin drink designed to curb appetite before meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin powder
  • 1/2 cup hot water
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice (optional)
  • Low-calorie sweetener or a few drops of stevia (optional)
  • Fresh berries or citrus zest (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of unflavored gelatin into a small bowl and pour in 1/2 cup of hot water. Stir for 30 seconds until fully dissolved.
  2. Stir in 1/2 cup of cold water and add 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice if using; mix until uniform.
  3. Pour the mixture into a small cup or jar.
  4. Place in the refrigerator for 10 to 20 minutes until it firms slightly, or up to 40 minutes for a firmer gel.
  5. Spoon or sip the gelatin about 10 to 20 minutes before your meal, optionally garnishing with berries or citrus zest.

Notes

For best results, stir in a tablespoon of warm water if the gelatin sets too firm before eating. Rinse utensils immediately to avoid sticking.
