Description
A "scary" jello dessert perfect for Halloween!

Ingredients

 * 1 x 6 oz package grape gelatin
 * 2 cups purple grape juice, chilled
 * 1 cup water
 * 1 small carrot
 * 4 large marshmallows
 * 1 x 16-oz can unsweetened pineapple tidbits
 * 1 x 16-oz can peach slices (lite recommended)
 * 2 cups green seedless grapes, washed
 * ice cubes

Directions

 * 1) Put pineapple and peach slices in a colander to drain (save the juice for another use).
 * 2) Dissolve gelatin in 1 cup of boiling water.
 * 3) When completely dissolved, add 2 cups chilled grape juice and 1 cup of ice cubes (loosely packed; this will be less than 1 cup of water due to spaces in between the cubes). Stir until the ice cubes dissolve.
 * 4) Shred the carrot finely (don't grate it), and add to the gelatin.
 * 5) Snip the marshmallows into small pieces and add.
 * 6) Cut peach slices into small cubes.
 * 7) If it's not Halloween and you don't need "eyeballs", cut each grape in half. Add fruits to gelatin.
 * 8) Chill.
 * 9) Stir once or twice as it thickens to be sure fruit and carrot is evenly distributed.

If you use a ring mold, you can put more grapes or other fruit in the middle to serve.
