Pack up your cooler with these Strawberry and Cream Treats to take to the pool or the beach this summer! Fabulous recipe, and a great way to use up fruit before it goes bad!
I had a nightmare while I was away in Italy without the kids. My dream? That I came back home and summer was over. Over!
No pool days. No backyard sprinklers after dinner with the kids. No beach trips or picnics under a shady tree. Nightmare indeed.
Fortunately, I woke up and now am more ready than ever to enjoy every moment I can with my family this summer – which kicks off officially in three days. Woot! Woot!
To celebrate, we’ll be kicking it pool-side, and I’ll be bringing a special treat for us all! Strawberry compote with whipped cream to top off the new Strawberry SUPER Snack Pack Juicy Gels. This is a super-easy treat. It’ss not only a breeze to prep, but is the perfect little treat to eat on-the-go with no extra plates or bowls needed. No napkins for that matter, if you’re willing to lick your fingers. And, who isn’t?
To make the berry compote, simply quarter 32 ounces of strawberries and add to a heavy-bottomed dutch oven, along with 2/3 cup of sugar and the juice of one lime.
Allow to heat and begin to break down, stirring occasionally. After about 20 minutes, use a stick blender until smooth (or add the mixture to a blender. Just be sure to do it in batches, remove the lid insert, and cover it with towel to avoid a heat explosion!)
Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate and ready to use.
Pack your cooler up when you’re ready to go – don’t forget your Reddi-Whip cream!
When you’re ready to have a pool-side snack, just top off your Strawberry SUPER Snack Pack Juicy Gels with a dollop of whipped cream and strawberry compote. Yum! It’s the perfect strawberries and cream combo that summer was meant for.
