A few weeks back, my dad brought home a giant flat of local strawberries~ and I got to work being creative!  The first recipe I shared was for Strawberry Shortcake Muffins (see that recipe here).  I promised that I would be back with another simple strawberry recipe, and here I am!
 

 
Today I want to share my really super simple recipe for strawberry jam.  When I say simple- I mean simple.  I promise it could not be easier… it’s done in the microwave, cooked for just five minutes, and requires no strange ingredients or slaving over a stove!
 
This jam can be used in so many different ways.  Spread it over your favorite Paleo-friendly biscuit or bread, put it on top of Three-Ingredient Pancakes (recipe here), or spoon it over sliced bananas with some shredded coconut.  The options are endless!
 
Let me know if you give this a try!  Hope you love it as much as I do 🙂



Stay happy & healthy,
