Strawberry Bread…Trust me,it’s berry good!
Strawberries have been the fruit of the week in my house! I'm in a food co-op and I never know what I'm going to get each week. This week I got a whole flat of strawberries. So I've been looking for new ways to use them. I made strawberry bread for the first time. I'm a huge fan of banana bread, so I thought I would give this a try! It was berry good!
