This vibrant Strawberry Salad is packed with healthy ingredients. Strawberries were first grown in Europe in the eighteenth century. Strawberries are difficult to dislike. In most parts of the country, they are the first fruit of summer.
They can be eaten right off the vine (one of the season’s best pleasures) or used in smoothies, ice cream, cake, pie, sauces, jams, and jellies, as well as savory recipes. It’s a light, sweet, and tangy crowd-pleaser that’s appropriate for any occasion, from Easter to Mother’s Day to today’s dinner.
