Strawberry season is upon us and I am completely excited.  There are so many things you can do with these little red berries.  And the best part- strawberries are great for you and they’re here all summer long!

Strawberries are perfect for Memorial Day!  Try these amazing strawberry recipes and sweeten up your holiday BBQ.

And here’s why you can eat strawberries all summer long-

Strawberries are low in fat.  They’re a good source of folate and potassium.  You also fill up on fiber eating strawberries.  Strawberries are packed with flavinoids that keep bad cholesterol from oxidizing and damaging artery walls.  And as if you needed more reasons to fill up on this fruit, strawberries also contain ellargic acids that prohibit cancer causing cells from doing their dirty cancer work.  Sweet!
