Who would have thought something so simple could be so good. I used frozen strawberries to make this. Nothing could be easier. I'll be making this again. Made for PRMR tag.

This turned out delicious. It did take more water then recipe called for to get it smooth. I ended up using 3/4 cup of water and I added 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. I just put it in a bowl and let it freeze the reat of the way. came out perfect.

Excellent recipe. I used frozen berries from my patch. Hint: Don't rush. Leave your processor running until mixture is very smooth, no lumps! I plan to try this with my frozen blackberries and raspberries. It may work with frozen peach or pear chunks, too.

I don't know yet what the end result will be, but definitely it's not as simple as the recipe claims. I used frozen strawberries and the indicated amount of sugar, bur 1/4 cup of water didn't quite do it. I added 1/4 C more and still it doesn't even remotely look like a smooth pure... It is clumps of frozen sugar-coated strawberries. I will put in the freezer nonetheless because it makes no sense to waste 1 qt strawberries... But I feel like some extra input is missing from the recipe.

OMG! This is like...I can't even describe it. It is the freshest strawberry taste, not overly sweet and yet very satisfying. It is a strawberry rush! I can honestly say this is the best thing I have made in my ice cream machine. I followed all the steps until freezing and then put it in the ice cream machine and it was sorbet in 25 min. Thanks for such a wonderful, low cal treat!
