Hey, everyone! So, with summer quickly approaching, I’m starting to get excited about fresh strawberries and all the yummy things that can be made with them. I have a wild strawberry patch in the woods behind my house and in a few short weeks, they’ll be ready for picking!

If you’re like me, you love a good strawberry pie recipe. This recipe is more than just “good,” it’s AMAZING. You see, unlike so many other strawberry pie recipes that contain a butter crust, this one incorporates a salty pretzel layer of flaky goodness. I love the flavor combination od this dessert, and I’m positive that you will, too!

Quick Tip: What goes great with strawberry pie? A dollop of Cool Whip!

How to whip up a healthy salad you can be proud of.

Have you ever craved something sweet but you aren’t interested in cakes, cookies, pies, or candy? I know when this happens to me I all about shock myself as I’m a junk food junkie. However, sometimes a big old bowl of fruit salad really hits the spot.

This recipe isn’t for your ordinary fruit salad as it contains two very specials ingredients: honey and lime.

The honey kicks the sweet factor up a bit, and the lime adds a touch of tantalizing tartness. This fruit salad is perfect for taking to summer picnics, BBQs, and family get-togethers.  It’s easy to throw together and looks like a rainbow in a  bowl. What can be better than that?

Remember those hot summer days when we were kids, and our parents would treat us banana banaa split? Well, sweetheart, it’s time tot ake a walk down memory lane because this decadent dessert is totally going to take you back. Frozen banana split squares are the peanut butter to my jelly, the Ozzy to my Harriet, and the cheese to my crackers.

This one-pan dessert is absolutely delicious and perfect for serving on days when the mercury rises. It’s cool, sweet, and amazingly nostalgic. I enjoy serving this dessert during summer picnics. My sister, who has an August birthday, has requested I make her this dessert in place of a birthday cake. Who turns down birthday cake? People who have eaten frozen banana split squares, that’s who.

Hi, everyone! I am so excited to share this wonderful strawberry lemonade cake recipe with you. I’ve had strawberry cake before, but this one packs a punch of zippy flavor with the addition of the lemonade. Forget pouring yourself a tall glass of the lemony drink; I’d rather eat it in the form of this cake!

You might think that making a cake like this takes intense skill, and let’s face it; you might be a great cook, but you’re no Martha Stewart. Ain’t nobody got time for that! I’m here to tell you that anyone can make this cake as it only contains five simple ingredients. Isn’t that amazing news?! I love the fact that I can bring a cake to a party that looks like Buddy the Cake Boss made it himself.

Quick Tip: If you haven’t any Kool-Aid on hand or if you simply don’t like Kool-Aid, you can use any type of pink lemonade powder that you have on hand.

We’re all used to the regular form of pizza. Piping hot dough smothered in tomato sauce, cheese, and pepperoni, right? Sort of, but that’s not the type of pizza we are making today. Today, your pizza will be smeared with sweet cream cheese and topped with the fresh fruit of your choice!

Now, if that isn’t enticing enough, the crust of this fruit pizza…are you ready for this? The crust of this pizza is a gigantic SUGAR COOKIE. Talk about a big crunchy bite of YUM. I love making fruit pizza for spring and summer gatherings. Everyone gobbles it up like the world is about to end, but can you blame them? Just look at the gorgeous, colorful presentation. Beautiful.

When I was a little girl, I can remember my grandma making strawberry rhubarb crisp throughout the summer months using fresh produce from her garden. Warm, comforting, and sweet, this dessert was a staple at grandma’s house, and it helped create many good memories throughout the years.

Create some memories of your own by making this lovely dish for your family and friends. It’s incredibly simple to make and only requires a few ingredients. Strawberry rhubarb crisp pairs well with any picnic food, Sunday dinner, or as a midnight snack.

Quick Tip: Top this dessert with a scoop of Breyers vanilla bean ice cream.

You probably have never heard it called this, but this dessert is kinda like a strawberry meringue parfait.  It’s lighter than most desserts, and doubly delicious.

This is a quick, weekday dessert that’s also la lot lower in fat than a cake or a pie.  This recipe serves 7-8 and is ready in 15 minutes max.
