80 Strawberry Recipes – The Ultimate Collection

The humble strawberry boasts an amazing amount of Vitamin C (139% of the RDA) with only 49 calories per cup. It’s low glycemic, making it a perfect food for just about anyone.

They can be eaten raw, in smoothies, salads, ice cream or in cakes and pies. Simple strawberry recipes that feature the red jewel are some of the best, right?

They lend themselves equally to sweet or savory dishes and are easy to find year round, although the price is generally lower  when they are in full season. They are often in season from late February through June each year, depending on where you live.

There are plenty of ways to enjoy strawberries later in the season. You can preserve the juicy jams for later enjoyment by freezing, dehydrating or canning.

Strawberries only last a short time, so enjoying them quickly in some simple strawberry recipes is the best option. So, how to keep your strawberries fresh?

  • fill a large bowl with cool water and add 1/4 cup of white vinegar.
  • Swirl the berries in the vinegar water for about 10 minutes to help kill off any mold spores that are on them. This will help extend their “shelf life” by a couple of days.
  • Rinse carefully, then allow the air to dry.
  • Normally you would want to store them on the counter at room temperature, but I often will store mine in the fridge to help extend their life.

Looking for some inspiration to upgrade your strawberry game? Don’t get me wrong – I love snacking on fresh strawberries raw, all by themselves, with nothing else! However, I’m also obsessed with these fun ideas, so give them a try!

Here are 80 delicious ways to enjoy these sweet berries in this Ultimate Simple Strawberry Recipes Collection!

  4. What a great list! Thank you for sharing, I had no idea that I could use vinegar to preserve the life of my strawberries by a couple of days. I keep meaning to paint some rocks to stop the birds from getting too them. Might have to add that to my to-do list for this week.
    Thanks for the great list, I can see myself referencing it often.
