It's time to expand your horizon of strawberry recipes to get a lot more of these wholesome berries into your diet. Beyond desserts, you can savor strawberries in breakfast dishes, salads, and soups to provide a sweet, fresh flavor. Strawberries are delicious sliced over a bowl of cereal, but try them sprinkled on your morning pancakes as well. For a light blender breakfast, blend chopped strawberries, banana, pineapple juice, skim milk and honey in a blender at high speed until smooth, then serve with a half pineapple ring and whole strawberry for garnish. Serve over grilled chicken, pork or tuna steaks.
Spring greens are a perfect contrast for the color and flavor of strawberries.
Make a light, simple romaine salad with a dressing made of fresh basil leaves, a bit of grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar and chicken broth, pureed in a blender. Cool strawberry soup is another spring and summer favorite. Click here for a delicious Strawberry Soup with Sorbet recipe or try this Tropical Strawberry Sherbet . All Rights Reserved.
