If you’ve joined in our weekly chats recently, you’ll know that I have an abundance of strawberries from my garden and have been looking for exciting new ways to use them up. I had a few group members suggest recipes for a strawberry compote, so during chat $273 I put their suggested recipes to the test.
In the end, I took the best parts of both recipes and tweaked to make it my own. You’ll have to try this strawberry compote for yourself to see just how easy and delicious it can be!
This strawberry compote is a great way to use leftover fresh strawberries, but frozen fruit works equally as well. It makes a delicious topping for cream cheese on a bagel or English muffin, in yogurt, or on ice cream!
