Super Flavor, Super Food.
Blueberry season in Arkansas is just around the corner, giving lovers of this delicious, ethereal superfood an opportunity to use them in a number of traditional and new recipes. I love them in salads, smoothies, cobblers and just by themsleves with something sparkling to drink. The crisp recipe below is designed for cast iron and the grill, but it can just as easily be baked in the oven and served in a traditional ceramic dish. It’s an impressive, easy dessert to make if you’re grilling out…and I highly recommend serving with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream.
