The Berry Best Ways To Eat Berries This Summer

by on ‎06-24-2014 01:51 PM

Summertime pleasures: sun on your skin, sand in your toes, and fresh, beautiful berries as far as the eye can see! For your fourth of July event, make the most of these delicious fruits in season and make cool treats that your guests will love.

Red, White & Blue Parfait


Whip up an easy themed treat with your favorite low fat yogurt. Collect blueberries and strawberries and gently layer with yogurt in a tall glass. Don’t forget a dollop of granola on top for good measure!

Fruit Kebabs


Many BBQ’s feature meat & veggie kebabs, but these easy-to-make fruit kebabs are so cute and fun. Use a star shaped cookie cutter to make star-shaped watermelon pieces, then skewer on blueberries and top with a melon star! Making these with the kids is a great activity to get them pumped to play and eat yummy and healthy fruit!

Lightly Flavored Water


This is almost as beautiful to look at as it is delicious! The perfect refresher, just add blueberries, strawberries and again, star-shaped cutouts of pineapple (or feel free to use watermelon if you have leftovers) to water. Let it sit for a while to soak up the flavors, then put it on ice in a clear pitcher for maximum effect.


 


Editor’s Note: As lovely and tasty as these treats are, blueberries and strawberries are packed with lots of antioxidants, too! Double yum.
