Hi,
A mix up with my online groceries has blessed me with 2kg of strawberries... only we won't be able to eat them fast enough, and we've got heaps of homemade strawberry jam already...
I'll be able to use a few of them making frozen yogurts for the kids but...
Any other suggestions that will use a good 1kg?
mmm
- Strawberry Dacquri's with or with-out alcohol!
- Strawberry Cheesecake
- Strawberry Smoothie
- Strawberry Pavlova
- Strawberrys dipped in chocolate!
Thats all I can think of now!
Mmm..1 kg, so much to do..
A) You could freeze em up in small portions for smoothies or desserts
B)You could have all your girlfriends around and get them to bring some rum or vodka and have a ****tail night, fresh strawberry daiquiris are the bomb! You could also have a few dipped in chocolate..mmm
C) Get some rhubarb and make strawberry & rhubard pie or a nice berry crumble
Yum!! I was going to suggest smoothies, or strawberry milkshakes. Smoothies are great with breakfast too. Or you could chop them up and freeze them to use later, in muffins or crumbles/pies.
Or you could a strawberry tart or pavlova with strawberries on top.
Yum.. we get cheap bulk stawbs over summer from the farm down the road.. we ALWAYs manage to eat them before they go off.. The list really is endless..
most have been said but we love them just with icecream for dessert, and for smoothies for breakfast..
if you cant use them, mash them up and put in ice cube trays, then defrost for muffins or desserts etc..
yummm.. it's about time we got our bulk lot..
:o
Strawberries, whipped cream, melted chocolate & a good movie, quite possibly my idea of heaven on earth at the moment.
ahem... coming from a pregnant lady who can't get enough if them... and saltana's in chocolate, and banana's... and, well, any fruit wrapped in sugar ><;
You could make a whole lot of berry coulis - like you get drizzled over desserts - I've put it at the bottom of mousses before (raspberry coulis at the bottom of white chocolate mousse is devine, sure strawberry would be ace too), drizzled it over ice-cream...and you could bottle it for Christmas presents?
Let me know if you want a recipe, think I got mine from a Tupperware cookbook.
Hmmm, half a strawberry per glass of champagne means you better get started pretty quick smart! :lol:
I suggest smoothies!
You can freeze them
strawberry pavlova
strawberry sandwiches (haha - sorry couldn't help myself)
what about strawberry syrup for ice cream
mmmmmmmmmm good luck with it!
........ Yeh, i was gonna suggest to freeze them too as i have frozen strawberries, & blueberries in the past (they thaw very quickly when you need them too) :D
muffins and freeze them and pancakes in the batter, bbq strawberries too smoothie milkshake or with whipped cream and scones
Thank you so much, there's some fantastic ideas there... I've just polished off a beautiful homemade strawberry milkshake the boys & I made.
Now we'll try to make some frozen yoghurt pops & some strawberry muffins before Darby wakes for her next feed! And chop & freeze all the leftovers, but leave a few to dip in chocolate & serve with whipped cream for hubby & I tonight after dinner. Yum!
Thanks again!
