I’m a HUGE Costco/BJ’s fan. Can’t beat their prices when you’re buying in bulk for a big family or a party. We had a BBQ last weekend and I loaded up on fruit for the kiddies – strawberries, blueberries and grapes. The one problem with trips to the warehouse stores is that inevitably food is left over that we can’t eat before it gets bad. This time we had extra blueberries so I started searching for a way to use them up without running to the store to buy more ingredients!
Ready for the easiest recipe in the world?
Take blueberries and dip them in yogurt (I had Go-Gurt squeeze tubes on hand so I poured into a cup and dipped). Don’t worry about making it perfect, it all will taste good in the end!
Place onto baking sheet (I used my favorite silicone liner, Silpat).
Freeze baking sheet for one hour and then place in baggie. Keep frozen unless eating. Enjoy! I know my kids did!

Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of berries on top of muffins and press down lightly. Place into the oven and increase the temperature to 400 degrees. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, rotating pan halfway through. Remove from oven and turn out, upside down on tea towel to cool completely.
