Loving that Spring is coming soon, and all the fresh fruits and vegetables are soon to be back in-season. I know that blueberries won’t be in-season for a while (July to September), but frozen blueberries are available all year round, and you can use them in this recipe in which I did!
These yogurt covered blueberries are so yummy & are fresh to the palate. These are good for snacks for both kids & adults. Blueberries are high in antioxidants, a source of fibre, and vitamin C & K in which they may help reduce some diseases such as cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer & dementia to name a few. Try to incorporate berries into your diet as it may help with that sweet tooth that we all may have. They have a natural sweetness and are great to add to salads, baking and yogurt! With that said, here is a nice & quick recipe for you to try. Ingredients: 1 cup of frozen blueberries 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract 3 tsp of honey (optional to use a lemon, ginger, turmeric flavoured honey) Directions: 1. Measure blueberries and set aside in a bowl. 2. In a separate bowl, add the yogurt, vanilla extract and honey. Mix thoroughly until nicely blended. 3. Prepare a baking sheet with wax paper. With two toothpicks, individually take a blueberry and dip into the honey/yogurt mixture. Gently place the yogurt covered blueberry on the baking sheet & repeat until all the blueberries are covered. (Ensure they are spaced out on the baking sheet, so they can be individually frozen). 4. Freeze blueberries on baking sheet for a couple of hours until fully frozen. 5. Transfer into a container with lid, and keep frozen until ready to eat. Enjoy as a snack or a topping on waffles, or pancakes. Nutritional: 73 g Serving | 69 Calories | 11 g CHO | 2 g Pro | 2 g Fat
