Blueberry Recipes

Blueberries: tart, tasty, and healthy
Blueberries are often called a superfood, and for good reason. Their blue hue comes from anthocyanins, compounds that attack cancer-causing free radicals and may even block the growth of tumor cells, according to a University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign study. Other research suggests that blueberries keep your brain young, urinary tract humming along, and skin bright.

Peak blueberry season falls in June and July in North America, but you can enjoy blueberry recipes all year by stocking up on frozen blueberries. You’ll want to keep eating them after tasting these 17 delicious and healthy blueberry recipes.

Vanilla Millet Pudding with Blueberry Compote
Blueberries are cooked with pomegranate juice for a tart-sweet mixture that’s perfect spooned over creamy vanilla-scented millet pudding. This guilt-free but luscious dessert comes in under 150 calories, boasts 3 grams of fiber, and is rich in magnesium, thanks to the millet. Plus, it’s made without refined sugar. Keep any extras in the fridge (place the pudding and compote in separate covered bowls until ready to serve); you could even enjoy a portion for breakfast.
