Berry Cherry Strawberry pie image

Because I added additional ingredients to the original Strawberry Pie recipe in my cookbook, and took the topping from another recipe in the book, I renamed it the title you see here to represent my new creation. It really was very good, I think vanilla ice cream compliments the nutty praline topping very well in this recipe....
