i heart cooking clubs ~ strawberries with swedish cream


Last weeks I Heart Cooking Clubs theme was a Movie Night. We were challenged to come up with unique snacks for a family movie night. When I saw the price of some lovely locally grown strawberries at the store I knew I had my main ingredient. Now, what to do with them? I turned to Mark Bittman's Quick and Easy Recipes from the New York Times and after rummaging through for a bit hit the jackpot. Strawberries and Cream Baby! Oh what a combination.

This particular recipe tastes a bit like creme fraiche, a little tart, a little sweet and oh so good. It came together in about 3 minutes flat. That quick! My guys loved them. What a lovely light snack for our Movie Night. It fit perfectly with the evening's selection, "Young Victoria". If you haven't seen it, Netlix it! It was wonderful!

Celebrate the Feast!

That looks so good! I'm always on the look out for new recipes for strawberries, and never though to use sour cream (I usually use yogurt)...so I'm going to have to try this soon!
