Mother’s Day Blueberry Dessert Recipe
The more you eat raw food, the simpler it becomes. When I'm by myself, what I eat at home tends to be bare-bones, if I'm not in restaurants with friends. But when I have a Sunday dinner for my family, or a special occasion, I make it fancier. I'm not always the greatest at planning ahead, so sometimes I open the fridge and make something up, based on one ingredient I'd like to use.
Yesterday my two youngest kids made a lovely Mother's Day dinner. I had a quick brainstorm about how to make the two pints of blueberries (currently in season) in the fridge into a dessert. Everyone gobbled it up!
