Easy strawberry tarts, perfect for sharing with your Valentine. Quick and oh so simple.
Just grab a sheet of ready-made puff pastry, some jam and strawberries. These easy strawberry tarts look and taste great, and you won’t need to spend hours making them, which is perfect for a busy household. My daughters were more interested in the strawberries than the tarts happily, leaving more for us to enjoy.
Valentine’s Day isn’t a big deal in our house but we do like to have a dessert, and these tarts would make a simple dessert for any occasion. If you vary the fruit and filling (Nutella anyone?) you can adapt the tarts to anyone’s taste too.
