I bought luscious, ripe strawberries at a fruit stand on my way home from San Diego on Sunday. I had sweet tart dough in my freezer, and cream cheese in the fridge. Beautiful and delicious!
1. Make "Sweet Tart Dough" and bake tart shell.
2. Filling:
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 t. vanilla
Beat three ingredients until smooth. Spread over cooled crust. Arrange washed and cut strawberries on top of tart.
3. Glaze:
6 oz. frozen limeade concentrate
1 T. cornstarch
1/4 c. sugar
1 T. lime juice or lemon juice
Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture boils and becomes thick and almost clear. Remove from heat and cool in fridge. When cool, brush glaze over entire tart.

Strawberries are my absolute favorite food! I peeked at this post the other day when I woke up. What a wonderful way to wake up in the morning. If only I could have taken a taste.
