You’ve Got Options

This dessert is popular in England, where it’s called Eton Mess. Instead of using lemon curd, combine 2 cups sliced fresh strawberries with 1 ½ to 2 cups softened French Vanilla Ice Cream, or store-bought.

And for real decadence, sprinkle 1 tablespoon vegan semisweet chocolate pieces over the top of each serving.
