Strawberries And Almonds

Ingredients

2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 cup low-calorie whipped topping
1/4 cup toasted almond slivers

Method

Combine the berries, extract, sugar, and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Let the mixture stand at room temperature for 20 minutes. This is so the berries will absorb more juice and become quite flavorful.

In parfait glasses, layer the whipped topping and strawberries. Top each serving with almonds.
