For the heart smart theme meal, Michelle shared Strawberries with Minted Yogurt as dessert. This tangy, mint-infused yogurt makes a refreshing topping for fresh summer strawberries.
Strawberries boast fiber, have more Vitamin C than any other berry. 1 cup of fresh whole strawberries has a respectable 35 micrograms of folate, the powerful Vitamin B that creates normal red blood cells and is crucial for prenatal development. The anthocyanidins found in these ruby mouthfuls also help protect against heart disease.
