Strawberry Pretzel Delight 🍓 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Strawberry Pretzel Delight 🍓 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This dessert is my healthy version of recipe that Will adores from way back in his college days at the very first church pastored in Valley Mills, Texas. The original recipe called for strawberry jello, Cool Whip, pineapple, etc. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This recipe is GLUTEN free and no jello - just fresh strawberries and touch of mint. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For the pretzel crumb: Crush 2 cups of gluten-free pretzels. Combine with 2 T butter (melted) and 2 t sugar. Mix. Spoon into 4 Weck (custard size) jars. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For the creamy layer: Add 4 ounces cold cream cheese, 2 t sugar, 1 t vanilla in a chilled bowl. Beat until well combined. Slowly add 1/2 c cold heavy cream. Whip til creamy. Place in fridge til ready to assemble. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Strawberry Layer: Dice 8 - 10 large strawberries. Add bits of fresh mint (about 8 leaves, torn) and 2 T sugar. Mix well. Let sit for 15 minutes or so. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ After the pretzel layer cools, add creamy layer and then top with strawberry layer. Keep in fridge til ready to serve. Serves 4. It's delish! 🍓 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Check my stories for a tiny tutorial. Tag me if you try it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ xoxo. Mama Suz

Because I do not know any medicine for grief but t Because I do not know any medicine for grief but to let ourselves grieve. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Because I do not know any cure for sorrow but to let ourselves sorrow. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Because I do not know any remedy but to let the heart break, to let it fall open, then to let it fall open still more. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Because I do not know any solace but to give ourselves into the love that will never cease to find us, that will never loose it’s hold on us, that will never abandon us to the sorrow for which it holds the cure. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Jan Richardson
