Dairy Free Strawberry Sorbet

Friday the store had a sale on Strawberries, 2 Pints for $3.

I knew just what I wanted to make so I picked through the stacks

to find the best box and came home to wash and freeze them.

I picked over the berries, sliced them,

and then put half in the freezer for some sorbet.


The fruity tart Sorbet turned out just right as a fresh after dinner treat, or an anytime treat.


I had such a long work day today, I just wanted to get home tonight and try another serving...
But before I got back home to my Strawberry frozen treat............I did some exploring since the cooler air today made walking a breeze.........

Found lots of busy bugs making good use of the beautiful flowers in bloom all around this time of year..............














I bet you Mr. Bee would have loved to get into some of my Strawberry Sorbet!

A Berry Good Day!

Enjoy!

Dandelion Greens Strawberry Salad

A quick dinner tonight.  Really hectic work week but I have to get some good greens in me.
Nothing better than freshly picked Dandelion greens with big beautiful Strawberries and a light vinaigrette.http://cannedtime.blogspot.com/2012/04/nunaturals-liquid-stevia-orange-lemon.html

Dandelion greens are wonderful for their


anti-inflammatory

qualities as well as diuretic and a


host of


good nutrition to boot. 

I tried like crazy last year to grow my own...........never thought it would be so hard since they're  a weed right?  But I never did succeed at getting any to get bigger than a couple inches in any confined soil.  So I get them at the health food store or forage away for fresh uncontaminated ones.  The tiny little new leaves that are growing right now here are the best for salad.

Mustard Dill Cucumber & Orange Relish

I used the last of the vinaigrette I made up for

Averie's Mustard Dill Cucumber & Orange Relish from Averie Cooks and it worked perfectly with the strawberries sweetness and the spicy mustard seed.

Make sure you gather your fresh dandelion leaves from an area you are Certain hasn't had any chemical spray for at least the last 2 years.  And wash your leaves thoroughly.

Definitely will be making this one again.
