Simple Strawberry Shortcake

I don't think this really qualifies as a recipe, more like combining a few different items for a super easy, delicious dessert. Throw the strawberries in the fridge before you start making dinner and then put it all together in just a couple minutes after the meal. Big hit with the husband...

• Ready In: 1 hr
• Serves: 2

Ingredients

• 8  ounces fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced lengthwise
• 1  tablespoon sugar (recommended -- Vegan Cane Sugar)
