Afternoon pick-me-up: Roasted Strawberry and Ginger Frozen Yogurt! I’ve never been a huge fan of commercial frozen-yogurt. It always had too much of a tangy flavor, and the low fat nature of it made it become icy pretty quickly. This homemade stuff doesn’t have either of those issues. Of course, I also used full-fat yogurt, which likely helped! 🙂 The ginger adds this touch of brightness and it’s hard to really identify as ginger, but it definitely adds something. And I got to use my ice cream maker to huge success, so might have to try more flavors!

What can you say really … when you have an overload of delicious berries from the Pick Your Own at Russell Orchards, you just have to go crazy. This is amazing, if I do say so myself. You might call it a cheesecake (very lemony!), you might call it a pie. I call it yummy. Topped with red and champagne currants (disclaimer: I got the champagne / pink ones from Whole Foods), jostaberries, strawberries (the very last of the season!), blueberries and raspberries. It’s a time consuming project, but oh so very very good. If you have 24 hours to spare (or at minimum twelve, but half of that is cooling time anyway), give it a go.
More strawberry Recipes! Right after I went strawberry picking, I made the mousse flavoring for this one, as well as the compote. Thankfully it lasted a few days in the fridge because I didn’t get around to making the cupcakes until toward the end of the week, and just in time for 4th of July festivities. Very yummy!
