High in Fiber
Antioxidants
Anti-inflammatory
High in vitamin C
High in vitamin K
Folate and Potassium
Regulate blood sugar
52 calories in 1 cup halved strawberries

I have found the easiest way to remove the stems on strawberries is to use a sturdy straw, (like one from McDonalds).
This is a quick an easy way to clean strawberries.

♥ Wash your berries, use a sturdy straw.
♥ Center the straw into the bottom of the berry and push through slowly out the top of the strawberry
♥ If your berry is extra large you will want to re-position the straw and push through to complete the task.
♥ I re-wash the berries after removing the stems to clean off any leaves left behind
♥ Now you are ready to use in your favorite recipes or to eat just plain, sprinkled with a bit of sugar, dipped in cream or used as a garnish of in smoothies.
