Inspired by Simple Food for the Good Life, by Helen Nearing (Chelsea Green, 1999).

This luscious recipe inspired by simple-living expert Helen Nearing takes strawberries to new levels of pleasure: you don’t need an ice-cream maker to concoct this tangy-sweet and creamy frozen strawberry dessert.

INGREDIENTS

1 quart strawberries (you could also substitute blueberries or raspberries)
1/2 cup maple syrup
2 cups plain Greek-style yogurt
1 cup organic sour cream

1. Mash berries and combine with maple syrup. Fold in the yogurt and sour cream.

2. Place mixture in a shallow pan and put in freezer. Stir every half-hour for 2 hours, then serve.

Serves 6 to 8.

This is the BEST strawberry freeze I've ever tasted. In fact I won't ever eat ice cream again. This will be one of my Prize recipes. Thanks for sharing this wonderful delight.

I've tried it--just served it to friends last night and it was a hit! You can make your own Greek yogurt by putting a quart of regular yogurt in a sieve lined with cheesecloth and letting the liquid drip out, leaving the thick stuff behind. Also, Pace makes a completely non-fat Greek yogurt that I buy at our local Hannaford. Hope that helps!
