Red, White and Blue - Good For You Too!

Indulge in a festive dessert this holiday weekend! All the sweetness, none of the guilt. And 8 filling grams of fiber per cup!

Berries with Vanilla Sauce
3 T sugar
1 T cornstarch
1 1/2 C vanilla almond or soy milk
2 egg yolks, beaten
1 t vanilla
4 C fresh mixed berries (such as raspberries, strawberries and blueberries)

Directions:  Stir together sugar and cornstarch in 1-quart stainless steel or nonstick saucepan (do not use aluminum because the sauce will discolor). With wire whisk, stir in soymilk and egg yolks until well blended. Heat to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly . Boil 1 minute, stirring constantly (this is no joke - don't stop for a second or it will burn). Remove from heat, stir in vanilla. Refrigerate for about 1 hour, or until cold. Divide berries among 4-6 individual dessert dishes. Spoon sauce over berries and serve immediately.
