I am trying to save a little more money and waste less food around here. Normally I will just throw out strawberries that are looking a little past their prime.
We love pancakes and crepes at our house. We also love to put strawberries on those two things, so I decided to save the strawberries.
Here is how I did it.
Cut all strawberries and slice into thin pieces. Sprinkle about 2 T. of sugar and 1/2 t. vanilla over the top.
Mix!
Let sit 10 min and let the juices begin to form.
I then took half of my strawberries, placed them in the blender with a Tablespoon of milk to form a syrup. Then I added the syrup back with the strawberries, mixed it well and then placed into freezer bags.
Next time, you should give it a try.

My teenage girls would love that! They are always making smoothies! Thanks for the nice comment on my daughter's bedroom reveal!
ReplyDeleteyummy! i think ive had something similar to this before and its delish!!
ReplyDeleteI love a quick freezer idea. Bags of pre-cut red peppers, green peppers, and onions make my life so much easier. Now I'll have a great little strawberry concoction as well. I hate, hate, hate, having to toss out tail-end fruits and veggies. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThat is as great idea! I'm bad about throwing out strawberries too:) I will have to try this with the ones that are sitting in my fridge now!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I need to be better about saving food!
ReplyDeleteYummy! I never thought of making sauce and freezing! Fabulous idea! Thanks so much for joining The Sunday Showcase. I greatly appreciate it! Hope you have a wonderful week! ~ Stephanie Lynn
