Blueberries, Blackberries, Strawberries, Raspberries…. and a Kiwi

In recent months cooking hasn’t been high on my project list. Too many wonderful adventures have distracted me from taking time to cook and lack of an oven has put a damper on the options available.  When asked to prepare a dessert for a lunch party on a spring Sunday afternoon I had to stop and think about what was in my repertoire of recipes that fit the occasion.

So with a little imagination the combination of fresh berries came into mind, especially after seeing the raspberries for sale. Who can resist buying fresh, plump, soft, and choice looking raspberries from the grocery store?

Oh, and did I forget to mention the strawberry was hand dipped in chocolate?

Found this recipe in a cook book while waiting in line at the grocery store. The slaw on top of the pork created a nice contrast. The fresh wheat bun was soft and sweet like only bread can be. There was no barbeque sauce in the dish. The meat was cooked in a combination tomatoes puree with chunks, mustard, and something else I can’t remember. The left over portion heated up well and provided two days lunch!
