Strawberry season is now. Thus, we’re celebrating with this strawberry sauce recipe. I especially love it because it’s made in under ten minutes. And it was made in my new healthy GreenPan non-stick cookware, which clean-ups quickly. For example, the sticky strawberry sauce slides right off with just a little hot water. GreenPan is quickly becoming some of my favorite cookware, let me tell you why.

The world is becoming more health-conscious, and we want to put the very best in and on our bodies. For instance, we’re growing our own herbs and vegetables, and shopping at farmers’ markets. Above all we recognize the value of good food, which is preventive medicine at its core.

Similarly, we care about what we put on our skin. Many of us have cleaned out and greened-up our beauty cabinets and make-up bags. We want less chemicals on our counter-tops and in our laundry machines. In other words it’s time to start doing our best wherever we can.

So, the vessels we cook our food in shouldn’t be treated any different. GreenPan is a company that prides itself on being the very first cookware company to bring ceramic non-stick cookware to the market. Therefore, they’re passionate about getting their affordable, healthy cookware options in your home. Their ceramic will never blister, peel or flake off into your food.

The best strawberry sauce recipe.

It’s lightly sweetened with honey (or maple syrup) and refined sugar-free. It’s made with three ingredients and balanced with sea salt and pink peppercorns for a sweet but not too-sweet experience. Subsequently, it’s an incredibly versatile strawberry sauce that works with pretty much everything. Like in cocktails, and on top of ice cream, yogurt, tarts, panna cotta, oats or spread on toast.
