Strawberry Pizza Recipe

This strawberry pizza recipe is a great summer dessert for those fresh picked strawberries.

Strawberries picked from your garden or from the local farmers market are picked only when ripe…if you purchase strawberries from the grocery store you will likely need to add sugar. 1 or 2 tablespoons of sugar to taste…a wonderful alternative is to substitute honey for the sugar.
