- Serve with fresh fruit. I used strawberries and kiwi, but any fruit would be really good. I also made some Strawberry Sauce to drizzle over the top, this was my favorite.
This recipe was adapted from Kraft Foods.
This looks absolutely amazing – simple and refreshing, and a much needed break from winter heaviness!
