Strawberry season does not last forever and I take that very seriously. The moment good strawberries show up at the market, sweet, fragrant, and actually red all the way through, I want to put them in absolutely everything. From breakfast to dessert to dinner, here are my favorite ways to make the most of them while they last.

Strawberry Salsa

Sweet, spicy, and completely addictive. Fresh strawberries with jalapeño, lime, and cilantro that takes about 10 minutes and zero cooking. Scoop it up with chips, spoon it over grilled chicken, or pile it onto fish tacos. This one is a warm weather staple I make over and over. Full recipe: Strawberry Salsa
