Happy 4th of July Triple Berry Salad

Happy 4th of July!

Thoughts Before Cooking:

Happy 4th everybody! I don’t know about you all, but where I’m at it is going to be one HOT, HOT, HOT day.

So I was looking for something that would be tasty and cool to eat/cook.

I got this recipe from The Kitchen is My Playground and the original title is Triple Berry Salad with Simple Vanilla Syrup.

Ingredients:

• 6-8 ounces of Strawberries
• 6 ounces of Blueberries
• 6 ounces of Raspberries
• 1/4 Cup of Sugar
• 1/4 Cup of Water
• 1/2 Teaspoon of Vanilla Extract

Directions:

1. Place sugar and water in small saucepan over medium heat.
2. Bring mixture to a simmer (there will be small bubbles), and stir until the sugar is dissolved.
3. Remove from heat and cool for 5 mins.
4. Stir in vanilla extract.
5. Chill completely in fridge.
6. Rinse the berries.
7. Hull the strawberries and slice into 2-3 pieces.
8. Place all the berries in one bowl.
9. Just before serving, drizzle the berries with the vanilla sugar syrup.
10. Toss gently.
11. Serve.

Thoughts After Cooking:

I thought this was amazing!

I will be making this again and again and again!
