Before I delve deep into the sweet, and tangy magic that occurs when strawberries, rhubarb and other select ingredients collide, let me start out by giving you a little background on who we (Lassens Natural Foods Market) are, and what this whole recipe swap is all about.
Hilmar and Oda Lassen opened the doors to Lassens in 1971 after coming to America from Denmark at the end of WWII. During the German occupation of Denmark, the couple risked their lives as part of the Danish Underground while simultaneously running a dairy store. They had always put their emphasis on the quality of life and knew that good food fuels a good life. They made it their goal to make good, organic, wholesome food available to their new community in Camarillo.
Real Foods Real Recipes is a way for all of us; the knowledgeable and the newbie, the master chef and the micro-waver, to share and explore the different ways to enjoy these good foods.
Be forewarned, once you take a bite you may turn into a different person. A person who lacks the rational and restraint of your former self. A person who does not know nor care how to put down a fork.
This is the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde of Cobbler and it is my very favorite dessert.

This is a recipe from my family that I felt needed to be shared with the world, which is exactly the point of this program.
What sounds good ?
