I had some of my first fruit last week. I couldn't resist the gorgeous strawberries at the market. Fruit is the treat I mourn the most!
I created this little dish as a dessert, then found it was a wonderful treat, almost like cereal.
You can adjust carb counts by using one less strawberry, leaving out the Splenda, and using the 1/4 C cream. Adjust according to your needs. All nuts used raw, except macadamias, which are dry roasted. All the best stuff of cereal without the cereal! On the days I use this recipe, I stick with a more meat style diet, hence still staying below my EEC level between 20-25. Careful planning is the key.
Hope you enjoy!

Strawberry-Nut "Cereal"
