Strawberries and Cream Breakfast Recipes

This post is brought to you in partnership with REAL® Seal. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Welcome Spring! Be sure to try these two Strawberries and Cream breakfast recipes for a wholesome start to the day.

In like a lamb, out like a lion?  Seems like that’s the way it’s going this year.  March started out like a dream and now it’s all brrrr… up in here!   Not to fear.  Having grown up in the South, I know how it works.  One quick cool blast and it’s all flip flops and humidity through September.

So rather than complain about one or two more days of chilly weather, I’m planning on what to do with all of the strawberries I plan on picking with the kids over the next few weeks.  Ain’t nothin’ better than trolling the fields looking for juicy red strawberries with my boys.  That’s when you know it’s spring!

What do I plan to do with all of these strawberries?  So glad you asked.  I’ve got a few basic recipes that you’ll wanna whip up STAT.  Combining the best flavor combo ever… Strawberries and Cream!  And, by cream I mean REAL® Seal vanilla yogurt.
