Instead of the frozen berries I was going to use, I found some great looking fresh ones at the market, & with them I made this simple yet OUTSTANDING DESSERT! Was going to share it with a neighbor, but after the 2 of us devoured almost half of it, we decided to keep it ALL in the family! ABSOLUTELY GREAT, & I'm hoping it will be just as good made with frozen berries! Thanks for a wonderful keeper! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick-A-Chef] -

I love to cook, I always look forward to trying new recipes. I am a single parent of two children so I am always looking for healthy, great tasting fast meals. I enjoy searching the web for new recipes. And when the kids and I are not in the kitchen you can find us enjoying the great outdoors.
