People beg me for this recipe. Enjoy!
2 cups Crushed pretzels
¾ cup melted margarine or butter
3 Tablespoons sugar
Stir together and then press into a 9 X 13 inch pan.
Cook at 400 degrees F for 7 minutes. Then cool.
With a mixer in a bowl blend:
8 ounces cream cheese (may use light version)
¾ cup sugar
8 ounces Dairy whipped topping
Spread this mixture over the cooled pretzel layer.
In an separate bowl stir in:
2cups boiling water
1large box of strawberry jello

16 ounces of fresh strawberries, cleaned, hulled

Chill about 20 minutes.
When it is partially set, pour over cream cheese layer.
Refrigerate to set, then slice and enjoy!
Nutritionist Jean Carper says: "Strawberries' unique phenol content makes them a heart-protective fruit, an anti-cancer fruit, and an anti-inflammatory fruit, all rolled into one. [They] also have lots of vitamin C and manganese, both important for healthy joints. And they are a good source of fiber, iodine, potassium, folate, riboflavin, pantothenic acid (B5), omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B6, vitamin K, magnesium, and copper. You could think of them as nature’s mini multi-vitamin."
