Recipe: Strawberry Sorbet

The strawberry-fest continues! We crushed some of the freshly-picked berries from last week and stashed them in the freezer. Transforming those beautiful berries into a delicious sorbet couldn't be easier. There is very little added sugar, so it's basically like eating cold, amazing fruit on a spoon.
