Strawberries and Cream
I don’t make dessert recipes often, so enjoy this one as you may not see another one for some time. It isn’t “guilt-free” but it is basically like pre-marital foreplay. It is a bit lower in fat and sugar so it doesn’t count right?
INGREDIENTS SERVES 4
4 cups of strawberries
2 cups of part skim ricotta
1/4 cup of sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup balsamic vinegar 1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup roasted hazelnuts 2 tbs bee pollen
Fresh Basil and Bee Pollen for garnish if you want to get fancy.
DIRECTIONS
Place ricotta, sugar, and vanilla extract in food processor.
Process until until smooth.
Take one cup of vinegar and 1/4 cup of sugar and combine in a saucepan. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to let it simmer and reduce. Cool immediately. Should be a syrup like consistency when cooled.
Serve with ricotta mix on the bottom, topped with strawberries, roasted hazelnuts, balsamic syrup, bee pollen, and basil.
