This recipe comes from the book 1200-calorie-a-day-menu Cookbook by Nancy S. Hughes.

Heather's Notes: I don't like FF sour cream, so I used LF. I also didn't bother with the lettuce that I wasn't going to eat, nor did I make anything pretty. I put the fruit in a bowl, lobbed the dressing in, mixed it up and ate it. I LOVE the dressing. Sour Cream sounds weird for something sweet, but it was so good and didn't taste a thing like sour cream. Next time I make this I'm using a banana and an Asian Pear with the grapes. This was really good and I think would work nicely for a gathering.

A few blueberry recipe links

Chunky Blueberry Sauce. This is a great sauce for pancakes or waffles or crepes. It's super high in antioxidants, lo-cal, fat free and d e l i c i o u s!! I use it instead of syrup. It also tastes supreme-o on their Blueberry-Ricotta Pancakes. Don't knock it till you try it! Man these are awesome pancakes! You don't taste or feel the Ricotta at all!! I'm big on texture, so this was a bonus for me. The Ricotta makes the pancakes very moist and fluffy. It truly is worth giving it a try! I also love Eating Well's Blueberry-Coconut-Macadamia Muffins. They are best hot and fresh the first day, and adding honey to them just puts them over the top! I also really like to eat their Blueberry Crumble for breakfast. It's a comfort food. It's like having pie or cobbler for breakfast. I make a giant batch of the crumble mixture and keep it in the freezer. Then when I want a nice breakfast fast I just throw the crumble mixture on top of the fruit and pop it in the oven. It's also great tasting with Vanilla yogurt on top or whip cream. I just love blueberries. I always have a huge bag in the freezer. I like to use them as ice cubes in my drinks, I use them in smoothies, in my pancakes and waffles. I love that they are such little powerhouses of nutrition. You can click on the links in this post and be taken directly to the recipe's on Eating Well's website.
