I love strawberry sauce because it is easy to make and it lasts about a week in the refrigerator or 3 months in the freezer. Strawberry sauce is great over ice cream or cake. It is delicious on pancakes or waffles too. You can also add it to your lemonade to make a strawberry-lemonade! You want to use a very powerful blender to make the sauce, one that will pulverize the seeds, otherwise you need to strain the sauce through cheesecloth-and that can be a pain. I borrowed my son’s Blendtec and I don’t want to give it back! That baby is amazing!
