TWD: La Palette's Strawberry Tart

Well it's that time again, and for this weeks selection Marie of A Year at Oak Cottage chose La Palette's Strawberry Tart.

La Palette's Strawberry Tarte

Let me first say that I really wasn't planning on doing this challenge. Then I went to the farmer's market and they had beautiful strawberries. So I had to make this tart! I mean look at this strawberry...

You know that everything is bigger in Texas, even strawberries!

This tart is wonderful! I used a strawberry Rhubarb jam, no pepper though, and creme de casis mixed in the strawberries. My son had two servings! He can't wait to have it again. I do have one more 4 inch tart shell to make when hubby gets home.
