It’s that time of year…BERRIES are in season!
My family can’t get enough of these wonderful fruits!
We love this time of year for the amazing fruits it provides! We wanted to share with you just a few kid-friendly recipes that utilize these wonderful BERRIES this time of year. This are simple recipes that your whole family will love. And don’t forget, just eating the berries by themselves is never a bad thing!
Also- if you live in Utah…Harmons Grocery is the best place to buy BERRIES this time of year. I have never purchased a bad container of berries from them. Don’t you hate it when you buy a container, and they are already mushy! This doesn’t happen at Harmons and that is why I am so grateful I have one just down the street! Harmons is currently running their BERRY MANIA sale. You buy 5 containers of berries for only $10. You can’t beat that!
