In fact, I'll be demonstrating one of my most popular recipes this Sunday: Dark-Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries 11 am to 2 pm at the new College Park Farmers Market! I can tell you, the strawberries are amazing this year. I just bought several quarts at Georgetown's local Rose Park Farmers Market, and they are sweet and tender - just as they should be when they're picked locally at peak ripeness.

Today is the 2nd "Katherine's Market Recipe" of 2013, all of which are designed to be delicious, easy, quick, famiy-friendly, nutritious (heart-healthy & diabetes-friendly), and to highlight produce found at our local farmers markets this week. At your farmers market, you'll find produce picked at peak ripeness, which means maximum flavor, texture, and nutrition. You're also helping save the environment when you buy at your farmers market. Here's how...

For my "Dark-Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries," I recommend you buy the strawberries at Rose Park Farmers Market, Dupont Circle's Fresh Farm Market on Sunday or come visit me demonstrating this incredible recipe on Sunday at the new College Park Farmers Market.
