CRUSHED STRAWBERRIES
Wash berries under cold, running water. Remove hulls. Drain. Put berries into a small bowl. Mash with a potato masher or the rim of a glass. Set aside 1 cup to beat into the meringue. Sweeten remaining crushed berries to taste with powdered sugar or honey. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

In the large bowl of an electric mixer, beat egg whites on medium-high speed until they hold soft, moist peaks. Add sugar, about 1 tablespoon at a time and beating constantly, until meringue is thick and glossy. Add the 1 cup crushed strawberries. Beat on medium speed just to blend.

Transfer meringue mixture to a freezer container. Cover or wrap well. Freeze at least 1 hour until solid. (You can store in the freezer up to 1 month.) To serve, spoon crushed, sweetened-to-taste berries evenly in the bottom of 4 individual stemmed glasses or shallow dishes. Top with frozen berry meringue.

Garnish with strawberries and mint sprigs, if desired. Tips: You may use other berries (blueberries, raspberries, etc.) in place of strawberries.
