FREEZER JAM Have you heard of it? It sounds like a new tik tok dance move. But it’s this delicious homemade magical spread that spends its time in your freezer until you’re ready to spread its sugary sinfulness onto something hot out of the oven.

I’ve been in the Turner family for almost 15 full years, and I am just now discovering this homemade gem. I almost feel betrayed that it took this long for my in-laws to let me in on the secret hidden in the freezer.

But if I were honest, years ago, I would have passed on this biscuit topper because it was full of “added sugar” and wouldn’t have “fit my macros.” Saying “no thank you” was more comfortable than feeling the guilt the rest of the day of “giving in” and not “staying on” my strict food plan.

I’m grateful that God delayed my introduction to “freezer jam” when my mind was more open to having food experiences without condemnation. Our Aunt Fran made this delicious strawberry spread. Instead of fretting over the food choice, I thanked God and her for this meal and time spent with family around the kitchen table. I pray for you to enjoy good health, good food, and the good, good Lord.
