I cook a lot of homemade meals because I like to have them in the house, and the refrigerator is the worst place to store them. By the time the night before rolls around, I always run out of ideas on what to cook for dinner. So, last week, I decided to make a last-minute meal of strawberry pretzel salad because I knew that was something I could eat while relaxing.
Strawberry Pretzel Salad
This recipe for Strawberry Pretzel Salad with fresh strawberries and pretzels goes perfectly with a nice cold beer on a hot summer day. Once the strawberries are ready to go, the rest of the salad can be made in advance and left for a few hours. The pretzels are crunchy and the salad is great on its own, or can be used as a side dish to accompany a grilled steak.

Can I Freeze Strawberries?
To freeze strawberries, wash and drain them well. Peel them if desired. Then, cut them into small pieces, or chop them if they are larger. Mix them in an airtight container with a little sugar and some lemon juice. Freeze them until they are solid. The strawberries can then be stored in the freezer for up to one year.
What Time Can We Keep Fruit?
We don’t usually think about keeping fruit in the refrigerator, but it can be a useful tool to have. We typically store fruit in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days, or so we’re told. However, that’s not always the case. And if you do find yourself wondering whether you can keep fruit longer than this, here’s what the most common fruits should be able to last in the refrigerator for.
How Long Can We Keep Strawberries?
You can keep strawberries in the fridge for about a week. Keep them in a closed container in the refrigerator, and they’ll last much longer than a week. Strawberries have a fairly high water content, and will turn to mush if they sit around for too long. A great way to store strawberries is to cut them into halves or quarters, and keep them in a closed container. Then you can put them in the refrigerator to keep them fresh. A good rule of thumb is that the best time to eat your strawberries is right after you pick them.
