Strawberries are perhaps the most popular type of berry in the United States, and are loaded with Vitamins B and C, potassium, iron and fiber.

Favored for their sweet taste, juicy texture and versatility, strawberries are also used in baking. If you are like me, you love anything and everything involving these sweet, nutritious berries!
