Simple Sorbet

I make this treat for the families I nanny for sometimes, especially begged for in the summer months by 4 and 8 year olds!  It's easy to turn your food processor/blender into an ice cream maker and make a HEALTHY, homemade sorbet in just minutes!


Simple Sorbet
Makes about 4 servings

1 lb frozen strawberries, blueberries, peaches, mango, pitted cherries, OR other frozen fruit
1/2 c plain organic Greek yogurt, unsweetened (I highly recommend Fage or Greek Gods brands)
3/4 tsp liquid stevia (optional)

Put frozen fruit, yogurt and stevia into food processor or blender.  Puree until creamy, stopping to scrape down sides of bowl as needed.  If fruit doesn't break down completely, gradually add water as needed thru the feed tube while pureeing (a tablespoon or two at a time).  Serve immediately or freeze.  To serve later, allow 10-15 minutes for sorbet to soften at room temperature.
