☀️ Love staying active in summer? If your joints complain after long walks, gardening, or swimming, you might be missing one essential protein that
supports comfort and mobility.
When I was child, the summer was always my favorite time of year...
It meant trips to the beach and swimming in the pool until my fingers were "pruned."
The late sunsets gave us more time to ride our bikes in the neighborhood or roller-skate in the driveway.
The summer months are also strawberry season.
And I remember fondly our family trips to a little Florida U-Pick farm to gather our own farm-fresh berries.
And while those sweet, ripe strawberries needed nothing more than a quick rinse in the colander, my mom served them with a dip that made them other-worldly.
The dip was as simple as it was delicious - an equal mixture of cream cheese and Marshmallow Fluff-
nothing more.
The problem?
It was jam-packed with sugar - not to mention corn syrup and artificial flavors!
And it was really hard to resist, once you started dipping those juicy, red berries into the fluffy "cheesecake" dip.
So I knew I had to recreate it... without the sugar, corn syrup, and all the other junk.
This simple and delicious recipe is one I know your whole family will love.
And with just 38 calories and less than a gram of sugar per serving... you won't have to swim extra laps in the pool
or wear out the wheels on your roller skates to justify indulging in this sweet summertime treat!
