When I say "fresh", I mean fresh. These strawberries were still on the bush this morning. Thanks to some help from my 3 year old, I have 2 ice cream pails full of strawberries to use. Here is just one way they're being put to use.

    Continue boiling, whisking mixture, until it turns somewhat clear.

    Once cool, gently mix in strawberries.
  • 7
    Pour into pie crust and refrigerate overnight, or until set. Top each piece with Cool Whip when serving, if desired.
