DH and I went strawberry picking today and picked 11 pounds (oops! It didn't look like that much in the container!). So, needless to say, I'm in need of some delicious and creative strawberry recipes, and not just sweets! Anything that will help me preserve is a plus, but uses for fresh berries are also welcome!
So far I have canned strawberry jam, made strawberry pie (from an earlier batch of berries) and made strawberry shortcake. I saw a recipe for canning strawberry-chipotle jam that I might try, plus a roasted strawberry buttermilk ice cream.
Any other ideas? Or favorite strawberry recipes?

Strawberry Sauce: http://adventuresofmini-martha.blogspot.com/2011/05/strawberry-sauce.html
Goes great on pancakes, waffles, and ice cream. I also just like slicing fresh strawberries over vanilla ice cream.

Also you could freeze some to use in smoothies.
Just try strawberry shake. Its awesome and its taste feels so good.
