Don’t these fresh summer strawberries just look delectable?!?! Treat your family with an easy “fresh” dessert of Strawberry Shortcake! You can purchase shortcake, use pre-made biscuits or make your biscuits from scratch. Really you can make this dessert your own, as easy or complex as you would like.

We love to add ice cream or whipped cream to the top, because, let’s face it – that makes anything better! What I think I love most of all is that our kids will eat this too! That means they get a bit of something healthy, but they think it is just dessert (so don’t tell them!!!).
