Strawberry Lemon Blondies

One of the best things about spring and summer is the abundance of fresh, vibrant fruits, and one of my favorites to bake with is strawberries. My family loves to remind me that as a baby, they called me "Strawberry Lips" because I was so obsessed with strawberries that I would leave a red mess all over my lips. But that love for strawberries has never faded, and it’s what makes this recipe so special.

I was beyond words when I found out PF Chang’s was launching here in Canada. My husband and I are huge fans of Asian food, so we rushed to book a table there for dinner. Needless to say, we were impressed! Of all the amazing dishes we had, I knew I had to try and replicate PF Chang’s chicken lettuce wraps. Tender, juicy and just so full of flavor. These chicken lettuce wraps are so versatile - they work really well as starters or as part of a main course, depending on how many people are at the table. What I absolutely love about these delicious wraps is that they’re...
