Strawberry Delight

Before this recipe, I thought strawberry pie was gross and tasted vaugely plastic-y. This recipe, however is the blissful embodiment of amazing strawberry flavor. It is fresh, quick, easy and especially afforable once strawberries are in season and on sale. It calls for ultragel to give it some thickness, which is a vegetables starch that you can buy in most speciality food stores or on amazon.

Makes 6 servings

• 2 pints fresh strawberries (2 lbs)
• 3/4 cup non-calorie sweetener
• 1/3 cup water
• 1 tbsp vanilla
• 4 1/2 tbsp of ultra gel

1. Wash, remove tops cand quarter your strawberries. Place any strawberries that are mushy or somewhat over ripe (but not rotten) to the side to make the glaze.
2. Put one cup of your ripes berries and water in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
3. Add ultragel, sweetener, and vanilla and blend until smooth.
4. Place your quartered berries in a bowl. Pour strawberry purree over the sliced berries and stir until evenly coated.
5. Divide strawberries between 6 dessert dishes. Top with lite whipped topping if desired. Also optional to sprinkle roughly crushed gram cracker over the top.
