Strawberry Sorbet

               

I think this may be the first dessert post of this blog. I find that slightly impressive, even though this is really not a recipe, but more a strike of common sense that I had one "hot" day a couple of summers ago back in Washington State...I laugh now that I think that was hot as I sit here in Texas and it is currently 101 degrees! At any rate, as I am fighting hard to get back to where I was two years ago, my husband said to me today, "I REALLY want an ice cream cone." At which, I really wanted to slap him. Instead of inflicting bodily harm on him, I said that we should make sorbet instead. 

So, a quick trip to the grocery store and literally $4.50 later, we had a cold treat for Dave, the boys, and I, which was much healthier, way cheaper, and just as satisfying as hitting DQ....And my conscience is clear, and my tummy isn't churning. I just have to add that should you decide that you want a daiquiri, all you would have to add is rum. You're welcome! ;)

Strawberry Sorbet

1 bag of frozen, unsweetened strawberries
Juice of 1 lime
1/4 tsp of mint
3 TBS of raw, organic honey
1/2 cup of water

Throw everything into a high power blender, and blend until smooth. Should have consistency of soft serve ice cream. Scoop into your dish, and eat. 

Like I said, before, this would be kind of silly to call it a recipe because it truly is that easy. Now go enjoy the summer weather, eat well, and be well!
