Notes
Use a sharp serrated knife to slice cleanly through the jello and peel.
For a smoother texture, ensure the yogurt is completely blended into the jello mixture.
Get creative with flavors! Try different gelatin flavors for variety.
If you want extra fruitiness, fold in small diced fruit before filling the orange halves.
These can be made up to 24 hours in advance.
