5 Reasons To Love Strawberries

"What’s not to love about strawberries—their sweet taste, lovely scent, bold color, and the many health benefits. But for me, the best part is personal: they’re the star of my annual birthday cake. Born in late May, I get to enjoy them at their sweetest, just in time to celebrate."https://www.laurierichardone.com/post/strawberry-shortcake-with-a-coconut-cream

The season is short which has me appreciate them all the more. I add them to my affordable luxuries.

If you want to reap all the impressive benefits, be sure to get organically grown strawberries. All non organic berries are sprayed directly on the fruit with pesticides , adding them onto the dirty dozen list of ingredients.

Great news for all the vegans out there. You can easily substitute eggs, milk, and butter with adaptable ingredients like oat milk, unsweetened apple sauce for the eggs, and a vegan butter. Happy baking. ~
