Strawberry Buttermilk Sherbet
Norene Gilletz
So pretty, so delicious! Leftover buttermilk can be used in muffin or cake recipes. If you don't have buttermilk, use no-fat yogurt.
Food Editor's Note: This is so easy and delicious! It took no time at all to prepare and my kids gobbled it up in seconds! This is a perfect summertime dessert for your family or your best company. Cool, refreshing, and very pretty!

1/4-1/3 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
