Blueberry Breakfast Bakes

September 30, 2011

I love muffins and blueberry (or chocolate chip) are my favorites.  I saw this recipe on Lauren’s blog (her modifications of Jessica’s recipe) and made it for breakfast one recent Saturday morning.            This Blueberry Breakfast Bake tasted like a combo of a muffin and blueberry pie.

Berry Good Sauce

July 17, 2011

Another recipe that looked appealing to me in the July 2011 issue of Cooking Light was for Greek Yogurt with Warm Black and Blueberry Sauce.  Since switching to Greek Yogurt, I am not the biggest fan of fruit-yogurt.  This, however, was something I could get behind.  As the reviews stated, this sauce didn’t get as [...]
