Strawberry Season

When strawberries are on sale for 75 cents a batch, it must mean summer is near. I couldn't help myself, and so I bought 5 crates full of strawberries. When I mentioned how cheap they were to the lady at the checkout, she was not impressed. "They were 50 cents last week," she said. That's ok. I'm not letting her rain on my parade. I'm tempted to go back for more.

But what to do with all of them? I froze most of them, and now I face the most grueling task of finding new things to do with them, and *gasp* eating them. He-he!

So, I thought it would be nice if we could all help each other out. Post your favorite strawberry recipe at your blog and then leave a comment here linking to it. If you don't have a blog, that's ok, just leave the recipe in the comments.

Here's my favorite strawberry smoothie recipe. It's so simple, and SO good.

Strawberry Smoothie

8 hulled strawberries
1/2 c. milk
1/2 c. plain or vanilla yogurt
3 T. sugar
2 t. vanilla
6-8 ice cubes

Blend all ingredients, adding ice cubes one at a time at the end.

What is your favorite strawberry recipe?
