Ingredient Spotlight: Blueberries

 

Blueberries are my new obsession. After giving up refined sugar (95% of the time). I needed a little 'something' for my sweet tooth. Blueberries are my best buddies now. Besides being cute and tasty, they are a superfood. Their phytonutrients actually protect against some diseases. They fight inflammation and are high in antioxidants. What's not to like? This recipe roundup features sweet, savory, and even boozy dishes. Enjoy.


Blueberry Chamomile Dutch Baby with Honeycomb Ricotta
Am I the only person on earth that hasn't had a Dutch Baby pancake? They have seemed boring to me. I mean if I am going off the rails, I want it to be worth the cals. But this recipe is anything 
but boring!

Blueberry Pomegranate Brie Cheesecake Appetizer
Elevate your appetizer game with this super easy recipe. Sounds and looks delish!

Lavender Glazed Blueberry Scones
The thought of a scone with summer fruit is just lovely, isn't it? Truthfully, I just want that pretty
 icing!

Blueberry Coconut Layered Smoothie
Dubbed the "supermodel of breakfasts" by the recipe author. It is beautiful. What a special morning wake up call for house guests!

Blueberry Cinnamon Slab Pie
This pie is made on a baking sheet, which in my opinion, leaves room for error. The filling is not "make your teeth hurt," so that is a good thing. I put cinnamon in almost everything, so I know that is a lovely addition. Yummy!

Blackberry Goat Cheese Salad
Lets begin with the calorie count on this salad...it is only 125 calories. Enough said, I am tossing this recipe into my summer repertoire. The dressing is a honey mustard vinaigrette. YUM.

Blueberry Skillet Pie
A cast iron skillet isn't just for entrees. How fun to use it for dessert, too! Just give yourself an hour for this delicious dish to set up before serving.

Blueberry Basil Balsamic Crisps
Is there anything better than the combination of sweet and savory? Well, maybe peanut butter and chocolate. This recipe is the perfect appetizer. I think I might try grilling this.

Lemon Blueberry Tart
This recipe is cool, creamy, and refreshing. And as I always say, lemons and blueberries are a 
dynamic duo.
Pork Tenderloin Stuffed with Herbs and Wild Blueberries
Oh how beautiful! A pork tenderloin is always a good option for company.  Stuffing it elevates a classic to gourmet level. The pan drippings from the roast along with blueberry juice and the ricotta makes a rich gravy.

Kiwi Blueberry Mojito
"This green and blue fruity cocktail is made with fresh kiwis, blueberries, lime, mint leaves, sparkling water and rum." It sure is a showstopper in a pitcher!

Blueberry BBQ Brie Burger
This brie burger is topped with a sweet and tangy blueberry BBQ sauce, crispy bacon and fresh arugula. I have personally used blueberry jam in my own homemade BBQ sauce. I know it works.
Running To The Kitchen

Easy No Bake Blueberry Cheesecake
My kind of dessert - ooey and gooey! This cake has a deep nutty flavor with almonds in the graham cracker crust, and almond extract in the cheesecake.

Cold Brew Mint Blueberry Tea
Isn't ice tea just the best? But it gets better and better with fruit. Though I have not made this recipe, I have made a blueberry tea before, and it is so fabulous! The mint puts it over the top.
