This breakfast tastes really decadent. I felt like I was cheating. I did use strawberries and blueberries for the fruit because I had them on hand. It is so delicious. I eat it at least three times a week for breakfast.07/23/07

This is a good, simple recipe for a weekend summer morning treat. I used fresh, ripe, in-season berries so the sugar called for in the recipe made the berries a little too sweet- next time I will probably use half of the sugar called for or less if I am using ripe berries.06/03/07
