Strawberry Pimm’s Sorbet

Fresh strawberry sorbet gets enchanced with Pimm's Liqueur. Check out the recipe for Strawberry Pimm's Sorbet on Shutterbean.com!

Your tastebuds called and told me that they need you to wake them up. Don’t you neglect them!!

Fresh strawberry sorbet gets enchanted with Pimm's Liqueur. Check out the recipe for Strawberry Pimm's Sorbet on Shutterbean.com!

I had a surplus of strawberries in the fridge (Cooper’s favorite fruit!) and wanted to make a sorbet that I could enjoy (with a cocktail!).  I also wanted sorbet but didn’t want to leave the house. Maybe I just didn’t want to wear pants.

Fresh strawberry sorbet gets enchanted with Pimm's Liqueur. Check out the recipe for Strawberry Pimm's Sorbet on Shutterbean.com!

The Pimm’s brings out the strawberries perfectly. They’re sweet and summery! The color is something else too! In this rendition, I cut up fresh strawberries, added Pimm’s  liqueur a few scoops of the Strawberry Pimm’s Sorbet and a few slices of cucumber to make it more like a Pimm’s Cup. You could add a little ginger ale or lemon soda and make it a Strawberry Pimm’s Cup Float!  Also– you can make Pimm’s Cup Popsicles. I stood over the sink and devoured two bowls of this sorbet. That means it’s good, yo!

Green Beans with Ginger & Lime


Add Green Beans with Ginger & Lime to your weeknight menu. It's a perfect #meatlessmonday meal! Recipe on shutterbean.com
I was trying to find a recipe that was on the healthier spectrum. I’ve eaten too many fries lately.

It’s probably because they’re so easy to order.

Add Green Beans with Ginger & Lime to your weeknight menu. It's a perfect #meatlessmonday meal! Recipe on shutterbean.com

These cooked green beans get tossed in a ginger lime vinaigrette. Roasted peanuts are toasted and chopped and combine with cilantro to make an incredible salad. Things I could eat this with: Rice, in a baked potato (yeah! try it!) on top of cold soba noodles. Oh! I would also put crispy tofu in the mix…kinda like this awesome salad.  Add it to your meal prep this week. Your fridge will thank you.
