    Can't get enough rhubarb during its too-short season? This recipe's for you. It's a delicious way to put some strawberry-rhubarb goodness on everything you want to, from oatmeal to ice cream.

    What is compote?

    Compote is more of a fruit sauce than a jam, with pieces of fruit visible after the cooking process (see above). It's full of flavor and can be used as a topping or even stirred into foods like baked goods, desserts, hot cereal, puddings, or yogurts.

    How is this sweet sauce sugar-free?

    It's true, processed white sugar is not used in this recipe, but no worries - it's not sweetened with anything artificial. Maple syrup and strawberries make this Strawberry Rhubarb Compote sweet and sugar-free while providing wonderful flavors.
