Literally folks, strawberries are trying to survive in NC. I hope they survive in FL. I just bought up a bunch of strawberries over the weekend on sale. I’m so glad. The kids love them. Strawberries are their favorite for sure. It is the number one requested fruit in our household.

The deep red color of the strawberry indicates its antioxidant properties. Containing more vitamin C than most berries, it also contains folate, vitamin B and a kick of fiber. At 55 calories per cup the strawberry is a versatile berry that should be in your fridge and freezer at all times.

Use them in salads, smoothies, fresh or dried. And if you have any other ideas you better share because I have kids who like to eat them year round.
