Foodie Friday ~ 16 Berry Delicious Recipes

I must admit, I am not a fruit person. It's not that I don't like the flavor, there is a little something about the texture of fruit.  But this exercise in researching recipes has now made me a believer.  Berries certainly are gorgeous, aren't they?  Not to mention the health benefits, especially of the blueberry.  I noticed at the market, the prices have finally come down. They are coming in season, and it is time to be thinking in color for your Summer menus.

Mixed Berry Gazpacho with Basil

I have yet to meet a gazpacho that I didn't love, and this looks like no exception. The touch of basil really will transform this dish.

Sweet cream cheese and berries - a perfect combination.

Melon, Berry and Feta Salad

Jenn Louis uses whatever melon looks best at the market, and she sometimes swaps out the feta for ricotta salata, or the chives for mint.

Strawberries and Cream Cake
I feel as if my Grandmother made this cake. Surely it wasn't quite as fancy. Made with homemade strawberry jam filling, it has to be moist.
Southern Living

Grilled Blackberry, Strawberry, Basil and Brie Pizza Crisps

Love the thought of these as an appetizer for your next cookout or barbecue.

Almond Butter and Nutella

This recipe is featured because I have never tried Nutella. Certainly, I must be the only person on this planet that hasn't. A very clever recipe that is super easy to assemble and prepare.

Cocktail Cubes
What a clever and pretty idea. I think these would make any drink better. Perfect for champagne!
House and Home

Blackberry Cobbler Mugs

The thought of blending the sweetness of blackberries with a buttermilk biscuit is very appealing.  Cook and serve in the same heat proof mugs.

Sprinkle Bakes

Red Berry Shrub
The recipe is for a "virgin" cocktail, but I bet that vodka or rum would be delicious additions.
