Daily Tidbit: Strawberries are delicious, that is reason enough to enjoy them! They made for a perfect dessert for me tonight: 1 cup = 43 calories & provide 136% of my Vitamin C for the day! However, if you need more reasons to enjoy them, here are 8:

Toasted Pine Nuts provide an amazing flavor boost for things, in this case a salad. I buy them and toast a bunch at all once (in Toaster Oven, Broiler setting, for 3-5 minutes, keeping a close eye on them and waiting for the light brownish hue and wonderful aroma to emerge) so then they are ready to go and throw into meals during the week: Salads, Sandwiches, Pastas, & Pesto.

Spinach Artichoke Dip Pasta with Sun Dried Tomatoes Recipe:
Make Spinach Artichoke Dip:
Cook pasta and save 1 cup of pasta water on the side. Add 10 Sun Dried Tomatoes to the pasta water to let them soften for 10 minutes. In a warm pan add 1 tbsp EVOO, 1/2 chopped Sweet White Onion & 1 container of sliced mushrooms (or buy them whole and slice them). Cook until veggies are soft and start to brown. Meanwhile remove Sun Dried Tomatoes and slice them into bite sized pieces. Add pasta water to Mushrooms & Onions in pan, along with the Spinach Artichoke Dip and Sun Dried tomatoes. Once blended and warm add the pasta and serve!
