Strawberries are in season right now! I bought a few pints at the grocery store this morning; the deal was incredible plus I can tell from the bright red color that these strawberries are delicious, naturally sweet and juicy. But then I was perplexed on how to use them. A quick Internet search revealed a Cooking Light article with 14 Favorite Strawberry Recipes! I selected a few below; which strawberry recipe is your favorite?
{L-R} Old-Fashioned Strawberry Shortcake; Strawberries, Pistachios and Goat Cheese Pizza; Strawberry Agua Fresca; Strawberry-Rhubarb Ice Cream; and Strawberry and Chicken Salad.
All these strawberries remind me of a local Virginia strawberry festival that my family went to 6 years ago. They had a long line of tables with stacks of fresh strawberries in containers; it was mind-boggling. My then 1 1/2 year daughter loved strawberries and easily polished off a pint; see photo below. It was a fun day outdoors. I encourage you and your family to explore a strawberry or pick your own celebration at a local orchard this season! Cheers!
