The One With the Strawberry Pancakes

It may only be January, but I'm glad that strawberries are gracing the grocery store shelves once again. I've been wanting to make a strawberry pizza for a while now, but we've been so busy that I had to content myself with some strawberry pancakes.

I even whipped my own cream for the topping. I made buttermilk pancakes from a mix and then made a simple strawberry topping. To make some of your own, just slice the strawberries into a bowl and sprinkle with 2-3 tablespoons of sugar. Toss the strawberries and sugar together and then let sit for 10 minutes to soak in their own juices. It will make a great and healthy alternative to syrup. And it makes it seem like spring is just around the corner, which I hope it is.
