It’s Zippy Tip Tuesday!
I figured since I’ve been churning out so many strawberry recipes here lately, it was time to feature them as a Zippy Tip.
After all, they’re juicy, they’re sweet, and they smell better than the finest cologne. I’ve referred to them before as the ruby red jewels of God’s fruit kingdom, and I truly believe it.
At just 55 calories per serving of 8 berries, they’re good for us too, with loads of Vitamin C and fiber.
Strawberries also rank high in the “plays well with others” category, since they pair nicely with everything from rhubarb and watermelon, to chicken, feta cheese and balsamic vinegar.
So how do we clean, dice, cook and freeze these precious little gems? Just watch the video below.

Mom always said it is nice to share!
Love it – we get so many strawberries here in FL so a great tip on freezing!
And I don’t have a stem plucker gizmo either. Paring knife seems best for hulling. 🙂
Thanks for the great tips! Pinning!

I know some people swear by the stem plucker gizmo too. I guess we’re both diehard paring knife gals!
