Strawberry Blossoms SAD version

12 large, fresh strawberries, washed
3 oz cream cheese, softened
2 T confectioner's sugar
1 T sour cream
fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

RAW VERSION;
1 coconut meat
1/2 c coconut juice/water
1/2 c pine nuts
2 T hemp seeds
2 T agave
8 fresh strawberries***while dehydrating other stuff I dehydrated the Streawberries and they got somewhat intense and tasty.
Blend all Joz

Remove stems from strawberries to form a flat base. Place berries on cutting surface, pointed end facing up. With a sharp knife, carefully slice each berry in half vertically to within a 1/4 inch of base. Cut each half into three wedges to form 6 petals. (Don't slice through the base.) Pull petals apart slightly.

A plastic zipper sandwich bag can be used instead of a pastry bag by filling with cream mixture and squeezing out excess air before sealing. Carefully cut one corner off of the bottom of the bag and squeeze mixture out through the cut.

Just made this variation: On a almond crust arranged strawberries standing up; did the 'filling' in a beggie and made dots/ globbs in between all the strawberries. (did not put strawberries into the filling so it is white). It looks too good to eat. Joz

Mookie: check this link: http://www.fabulousfoods.com/recipes/dessert/fruit/strawblossoms.html
they look the same way standing up with filling between the strawberries instead of in the strawberries. WOW!

and no I don't do pictures yet, all my men do them and drive me crazy -- I get no pictures - so I went to the disposable $7.45 camera and get them developed but they'r on paper not digital.

I wish someone would try this and post a picture they are 'beautiful' Joz
