    Desserts: Strawberry Shortcake

    Recipe Introduction


    From member Ellefresco: I am a body type A and I was in a panic at the thought of never having my favorite desert ever again. Old fashioned is because biscuits were the shortcake way back when, before sponge cake, and was still in my family as I was growing up. Enjoy!!
    **Note: Refer to your program book for how to count this recipe for your body type when using before a workout.

    Topping:
    * 3 egg whites
    * 1/4 cup of Splenda
    * 1 tbsp cream of tartar
    * 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract
    Mix cream of tartar and Splenda together and set aside. Whip egg whites until thick and creamy like meringue. Slowly add Splenda and cream of tartar mixture continuing to whip until back to meringue thickness. Then slowly add in the vanilla while continuing to whip until it is a creamy texture like whipped topping. Makes 8 generous portions.

    Bottom:
    * Oatmeal
    * 1 egg white
    * 2 tsp baking powder
    * 1/2 tsp baking soda
    * 1 tbsp cream of tartar
    * warm water
    Grind oatmeal in a blender or food processor until you have 2 cups. Mix all dry ingredients together, then add egg white and mix. Add water, a little at a time, until you get a pasty biscuit texture. Cut batter into 8 equal portions dropping them onto a nonstick baking pan, flatten the tops a little so they are not peaked, and bake in a 425¡ preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until tops are light golden brown, but not too crispy. Biscuits can be used warm or cold. Makes 8 biscuits

    Berries:
    * 2 - 16 oz boxs strawberries (makes about 4 cups of juiced berries)
    * 1 cup Splenda or to taste
    * water
    Cut up berries in small pieces into a metal bowl (metal bowls seem to work best for the berries to bleed), sprinkle Splenda over berries and mix. Allow the berries to sit at room temperature for an hour, allowing them to bleed. After an hour mash berries, and add enough water to get the juice that you desire, being careful not to make them too thin. Refrigerate until ready to use. Berries will make enough for 8 portions.

    Makes 8 servings
