Friday Foodie Fix Strawberry Gluten Free Recipes

gluten free recipes Welcome back to our weekly event, Friday Foodie Fix.  This is where you link up your gluten free recipes each week that contain the Secret Ingredient!

You will also find each week there will be loads of information on that ingredient so even if you don’t have any recipes to share, you’ll gather some useful information.

Make sure you check back to see what recipes have been added.

This week’s secret ingredient is Strawberries.

contains flavonoids, a group of phytochemicals that can counter cell damage in teh body and potentially reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and aid memory and other brain function.

contains vitamins C, E and high in fiber

How to Buy

The fresher the berry the better.  This is one berry that you really want to make sure you buy ORGANIC!  Strawberries always rank high for pesticide residues and I doubt you really want to eat a mouth full of that.

How to Store

Don’t wash your berries until you are ready to use them.  When you do be very gentle and pat them dry.  Store them in the refrigerator but to get the best tasting flavor from them bring them to room temperature when you are ready to eat.

Favorite Tip

With farmers markets being open and tons of amazing strawberries around, buy some extra and freeze them.  Wash as noted, spread out onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and place in freezer.  Once frozen transfer to a container or plastic bag and enjoy all year long.
