Blackberry Recipes

Blackberry Summer Salad

I am using canned Blackberries for this, however you can also use fresh if you want, but you will need syrup for the dressing.

• 16oz Blackberries
• 2 medium Nectarines or Peaches - pared and/ or sliced to your preference
• 2 medium Kiwi - diced
• 6 Pineapple rounds
• 1 Honeydew melon - sliced and diced
• 2 bananas peeled and sliced
• Lettuce leaves for the bed

I have used two different ways for the preparation of this.  Either place all the fruits into a bowl and mix gently then place on top of the lettuce leaves or place fruit directly onto the lettuce leaves.  Once the fruit is on the lettuce leaves use the syrup as a dressing.

Blackberry Yogurt Dressing

Use ½ of the blackberry syrup, 1tablespoon of honey, and 2 teaspoons of chopped mint and mix together with 8oz of plain yogurt.

Serve together with the blackberry summer salad.
