Cooking With Kids: Summer Blueberry Treats
It’s Thursday, so here we are cooking in the kitchen with kids. Easy peasy this week and yet, oh so yummy. I saw a variation of this on Pinterest and wanted to try it. So this is what we started with. Oh so yummy and nutritious blueberries. Did you know they are a superfood? Yes, they are. Also they contain great nutrients that help your skin and protect your brain from Alzheimer’s Disease. I love that.
Then I added this. My favourite yogurt. I can generally only find at Costco. And we rolled all the delicious berries in yogurt. And we froze them for a couple of hours.
And oh my goodness! So yummy. Have you had the frozen grapes treat? Well this is like that with my yogurt topping as a coating. Now I would suggest putting them on a cookie sheet to freeze because we had to chip ours apart. But honestly they are so delicious. I loved that they melted in my mouth. Not all, but many melted in my mouth which meant I could eat them easily. (Normally blueberries and their teeny seeds really upset my stomach. Not this time.) So how will you get your kids in the kitchen this week?

YUMMY! I’ve tried this before with greek yogurt and my kids loved it, not to mention it’s such a healthy snack!

The blueberries are early this year – like everything else. I can not wait to try your idea. I know my youngest girl will go nuts for it.

Oooooh! This is one of my fave recipes!!! We get a lot of fresh blueberries here (well, not on the Island but from Sudbury, which is close-by). I always have tons of blueberries, so something this light and refreshing is great on a hot Summer day! Thanks for posting! xo

My friend posted pretty much the same recipe on her blog. I really have to try it. I love blueberries! Actually, I just finished a blueberry green yogurt smoothie. Yum!

I can do this. I can seriously do this!
I have frozen blueberries and plain yoghurt and I haven’t known what to do with them. No cooking or recipes tips on my blog (smile).
Off to cook (what cooking looks like to me).
