It’s been a busy summer and I have not been home to post any of the recipes I had intended to publish in June. However, summer is not over yet and strawberries are still in season so I want to share this quick and easy recipe for Strawberries Romanoff. The first time I ate this dessert was over 35 years ago on a date with my now husband. I loved it and have created a version that is lower in fat by using Greek yogurt. The original recipe was made with sour cream. If you prefer a full-fat version substitute sour cream for the Greek yogurt but I prefer this one!
