Strawberry Yogourt Panna Cotta

It's not because February 14 is Valentine's Day, no not at all. I just wanted to use my leftover yogourt and I still had strawberries in the fridge.

I got this recipe from Canadian Living magazine. Since I don't have unflavoured gelatin in my pantry, I added strawberry-flavoured gelatin instead.

Ingredients:
2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
1/3 - 1/2 cup sugar (the original recipe calls for 1/3 cup splenda sweetener)

1 tsp vanilla powder

Berries
1 1/3 cup sliced fresh strawberries
2 tsp (the original recipe calls for 2 tsp splenda sweetener)
1 tbsp lemon juice (the original recipe calls for 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar), you can subtitute this for other syrups/sauces, such as blackberry syrup or chocolate syrup.

� In small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over � cup (50 ml) of the cream; let stand for 5 minutes to soften.
