- In a blender, combine sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until smooth.

- Refrigerate for about 30 minutes, or until the jello begins to thicken.
- Assemble:
- Carefully spoon a layer of the thickened jello over the chilled flan in each ramekin.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the jello is completely set.
- Serve:
- Run a thin knife around the edges of the ramekins to loosen the flan.
- Invert each ramekin onto a serving plate.

Tips and Variations:
- For a richer flavor, use whole milk instead of evaporated milk.
- Add a splash of rum or brandy to the flan mixture for an adult twist.
- Top with whipped cream and fresh strawberries for an extra touch.
- Use other flavors of jello, such as raspberry or cherry, for a different flavor combination.
