If you are looking for a delicious and pretty addition to a sweet or savoury recipe I have good news! California strawberries are in season and can be found at grocery stores right now #Ad. So, if you want to keep the strawberries coming, look for California strawberries. 8 California strawberries are a great way to keep your energy levels up in between breakfast and lunch or for an evening snack. 
 
With everyone making bread these days I thought a strawberry bread was in order. This is a very quick and easy bread that ended up being fancier than I had originally planned. I’m still calling it a bread though! 
 
You can be a cooking newbie or an experienced chef, or anywhere in between, but using California strawberries is a great way to make your dishes stunning. Not only do your meals look good, but a serving of 8 California strawberries is a source of fibre. As we move into fall, I always get asked about what foods to eat to get more Vitamin C. Most people know that oranges have Vitamin C but strawberries actually have the same amount and are therefore an excellent source of Vitamin C.
