"I Need Flavor Now!"

So here's the deal. When you spend two weeks in a European country eating heavy food and working insane hours only to return with jetlag and a very angry tummy, you turn into me right now. After three days on the BRAT (bananas, rice, apple sauce, and toast) diet, I was becoming desperate to eat something with flavor [have I mentioned I have Belgian chocolate in my refrigerator?]. So I went foraging in my cupboards and lo and behold, there it was -- a pack of raspberry Jello calling my name.

Later that day I decided I should try freezing and drying some of my herbs to keep the crowded plants healthy and useful over the winter. As soon as I reached my designated chair of jello enjoyment a culinary voice inside my head told me mint would go great in that! So here you go -- the tastiest dinner I have yet discovered for the times in your life when pepto bismol is your only comfort.
