Homemade Strawberry Preserves

When you are eating low-glycemic and not using any refined sugars, it is not easy to find a Jam/Jelly to use. So, I did a little research and found out that it is super easy to make your own….I had no idea!! So exciting! My one challenge (as always) was figuring out how to do it without using refined sugar. But you know me, this is a challenge that I love and that I am always up for! 🙂

I did it! I made strawberry preserves, and I thought it came out great! I didn’t make it to store and use in the future, I made it to use right away. You will see what I did with it in a recipe I will be posting soon! 🙂
