No recipe .. here's what I do .........
Make jello with a little less water (1-3/4 cups instead of 2).
Set in frig, and when it starts to set (about consistency of an egg white) add shredded carrots.
Stir in, and let set in frig.
If you remember, go back and stir again, before it gets set too far.
If you forget, no harm done, just that the carrots many not be so evenly distributed.

If adding crushed pineapple, drain well, and add with the carrots.

You can make it with regular jello, or sugar free. I find the s/f does not set so firm, so I would only use 1-1/2 cups water instead of the 1-3/4.
