Sometimes you need something a little exciting to spice up your yogurt (or frozen yogurt or pancakes or angel food cake) and these strawberries are perfect for that. The recipe is incredible simple – just boil some honey and lime juice and let the strawberries hang out and do their thing – and they transform into a perfect sweet and tart treat. Pretty soon you will be putting them on just about everything. This recipe is inspired by one from Food and Wine, where they place them on lemon sorbet and add some whipped cream. Yum.
