INSTRUCTIONS
Date: 10 Mar 96 10:15:06 EST From: Karen Snyder <100130.1562@compuserve.com> I made this recipe this weekend to bring as dessert when I was invited for dinner, and it was wonderful. SAD and non-SAD people alike love it. It came from a magazine, but I don't know which one, because I only have the cut-out recipe. Note that this must be prepared several hours in advance or the night before, to give the flavors time to develop. SEVERAL HOURS BEFOREHAND, OR THE NIGHT BEFORE: Set aside 4-6 strawberries, depending on the size. In food processor or blender, process the remaining strawberries, ginger root, lime peel, and sugar till smooth. Quarter the reserved strawberries. In a serving bowl, combine the quartered strawberries with the pineapple chunks. Pour the strawberry sauce over the mixture, and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight, stirring occasionally. Makes 4 servings, each serving: about 90 calories, 1g fat, 2 mg sodium. Sorry, the magazine did not provide the sugar grams. Notes I tasted the strawberry sauce and then adjusted the amount of lime and ginger accordingly, using more than called for in the recipe I added chopped kiwis to the pineapple. The original recipe called for 2 tablespoons sugar, which seemed like way too much to me, so I started with 1/2 tablespoon, which was fine. Before adding the strawberry sauce, I poured 2 tablespoons of vodka and 2 tablespoons of Cassis (black currant liqueur) over the fruit. FATFREE DIGEST V96 #69 From the Fatfree Vegetarian recipe list.
