Strawberry Sauce

Notes: this is great dessert sauce, and also really good mixed in with lemonade or limeade. You can also use almond extract, depending on your taste/what you are using the sauce for.

1 pint strawberries
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Wash strawberries, remove stems, and halve. Combine berries and sugar and bring to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring and breaking up strawberries as they soften. Remove from heat and add in extract.

Allow strawberries to cool slightly, then transfer to a blender and puree. Store in the refrigerator.
