Ingredients
1 cup sliced fresh strawberries1 tsp white balsamic vinegar1/4 tsp of honey1/8 tsp of ground black pepper ( not completely fine grind)
Directions
Slice strawberries into bowl. Drizzle balsamic vinegar over. Go slow and try no more than a half teaspoon at first. You want just enough to flavor the strawberries. drizzle a little honey on top and a nice pinch of semi fine ground black pepper. All the measurements in this recipe are approximate. It is very much a recipe that you make entirely to your individual taste. What you are looking for is the sour/acid taste of the balsamic, cut with the sweetness of the honey, without negating the taste of the strawberries. The pepper just adds a little zest at the end.

If you want to make this for company you can actually do it with whole strawberries as well. I've had it at functions as part of a buffet.

I think you will really love the sweet and sour with a slight bite taste that also lets you really enjoy the strawberry flavor. Best of all it is great on any diet except those who have to limit sugars.

    This is soooo good! I also added just a tiny amount of sugar instead of honey. - 1/26/13

    I love this recipe. I have made it several times now. I add sugar instead of honey. It is more delicious the next day. - 5/9/10

    This is delicious (although I'm a huge balsamic fan, so I added lots of extra!). - 5/21/08
