Money Saving Entertaining Idea

Next time you are entertaining and do not want to break the bank on the dessert, try serving granita. All you need is a liquid, freezer, glass baking dish, and a fork. Place the liquid of your choice into a glass baking dish and place it in the freezer. Every 30-45 minutes, run a fork through the liquid. Repeat this until the mixture resembles course sugar. Spoon into a dish and serve. This looks and tastes fancy, but most granitas cost only about $1! The flavor possibilities are endless. You can use fruit juices, espresso and chocolate, or even mixed drinks, wine, or cocktails.
