I am Melissa Knott from After we Tied the Knott and I am so happy Ady let me take over her little slice of paradise today so she can go be awesome.

I am a working mama to a perfect little lady and a wife to the best friend I’ve ever had. My heart is overflowing and I’m not afraid to show it. I love food and today I share a piece of amazingness
with you. (The red squiggle line tells me “amazingness” is not a word…
I don’t agree.)

Get ready for the best fruit shortcake ever.

I
will note that this was thrown together with whatever we had in the
cupboard/fridge so know that the fruit can be interchangeable.

For THIS, we used the following:

  • 2 kiwi
  • 1 carton strawberries
  • 1/2 carton blueberries
  • 1 tsp Splenda (no calorie sweetener)
  • 1 8oz container of light Cool Whip
  • Pre-made shortcake cups

Slice and dice your kiwi and strawberries and toss ’em into a
bowl with the blueberries. Throw in a tsp or so of sweetener (sugar or
Splenda) and stir well.

Remove shortcake cup from the plastic (classy, right?) and put on a plate. Top with fruit, Cool Whip, and more fruit. Then EAT!
