It took a few weeks, but this...
has finally turned into this!
The ones we haven't simply eaten out of hand were made into a strawberry pie. Three so far!!The recipe is so easy and made even easier by using a frozen pie crust. I prefer the ones you have to defrost and then unroll - Pillsbury to be specific. Here is the recipe! Happy Eating!!
1 C sugar
1 C water
2 1/2 Tbs cornstarch
1 large box strawberry jello
4 C quartered fresh strawberries
Heat sugar, water and cornstarch over medium heat, stirring often. Heat until it begins to thickens and turns clear. Add jello, stir well until combined. Pour over berries and chill until set.
*PS I would post a picture of the finished product but they don't last long enough for photos at my house!
How do you keep your strawberries from being eaten while growing? Every time one begins to turn red, something is eating ours. We've put netting over top to keep the birds out, but is there something else that loves them? We've even sprayed for bugs!!
