More Blueberries.....
Blueberries are number one in antioxidant activity when measured against other fruits and vegetables. Source: Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry (1998)."Blueberries are rich in vitamins and minerals such as C and E, beta-carotene,
folic acid, iron, fiber and potassium. Plus they are naturally free of fat,
cholesterol and sodium. A serving of blueberries (1/2 cup) counts as one fruit
serving, is only 80 calories, and makes an easy, nutrient packed snack perfect
to pop into your mouth during a summertime hike." (excerpt taken from this article)

I was looking for some more blueberry recipes and came across this one to try for Blueberry Buckle. It was really good. I served it warm with vanilla ice cream over it and it was a very refreshing and a little bit different dessert for a hot summer night. Try it for something a little different this week!
