I just recently discovered blueberries. They had somehow
ended up on my list of foods that I don’t eat (along with coconut, tapioca, and
anything with a custard-like consistency). I’m always hearing about how
blueberries are a super food, filled with antioxidants, so I picked some up at
Trader Joe’s and decided to give them a try. What a great decision that was!
Juicy and sweet, I can’t get enough!
Learn all about blueberries at The Blueberry Council.
How to eat blueberries:
- With your fingers, of course!
- Use toothpicks or fun appetizer sticks to pick up the blueberries (and work on fine motor skills, too!)
Let’s expand to other foods and textures:
- Top your plain or vanilla yogurt with a handful of blueberries
- Blueberry flavored yogurt
- Make some blueberry muffins – measure, pour, and stir for a sensory and strengthening experience!
- Add some blueberries to your pancakes – create a design or smiley face in your pancake
- Drink a blueberry smoothie
- Make a blueberry popsicle
- Spread some blueberry jam on a piece of toast, an English muffin, or a rice cake
- Crunch on some freeze dried blueberries
