Fail: Dried Strawberries, Part 5

Posted under Fail

Name: Lisa

Original Inspiration: http://www.theworldwidegourmet.com/recipes/dried-strawberries-ruscalleda/

What I Did: So basically this was claimed to be better than Twizzlers and since strawberries were in season I thought, why not? Ya, this picture CANNOT be real because I followed the directions exactly and they turned out to be dry, shriveled, brown bits of strawberry. Major fail.

My Result:

pinterest fail dried strawberries

Next Time I Will:  There isn’t any way this “recipe” can actually be real. My advice is to spread the word on how this is utter and complete recipe fraud!

Fail: Dried Strawberries (Don’t Try This One!)

What I Did: Dried strawberries in the oven. Simple yes? Not for me! Mine look nothing like the inspiration pic. Mine look like they need a shave! Instead they went file 13! In the trash! Thanks!

My Result:

Next Time I Will: Put them in a dehydrator next time! If it looks too easy, it probably is! Save time and money and skip it and go with what you know!

What I Did: I thought, “Why not try a healthy little snack of raspberries and yogurt?” So I took pre-frozen raspberries and dipped them in Greek yogurt, add a squirt of honey and carefully placed them in a freezer bag. After putting them in the freezer, the yogurt went rolling downhill and ended up banning into a yogurt-bar of sorts. Still tasted like rainbows, though!

My Result:

Next Time I Will: Next time I’d leave more space between the berries and cover the raspberries more heavily in yogurt. This way I’d have a greater chance of having individual snacks, rather than a beast of a bar I’ve been carrying around my office and calling “The Yog-i Bar-a”.
