Blueberry Salsa Sparkles With Flavor

Pepper in fruit salsa? If you think it sounds odd, just try this colorful salsa. Blended 

with blueberries and other fruit, dashes of red and black pepper add just enough heat to 

kindle a delicious combination.

Serve this lively flavored sauce with ice cream and pound cake,        

a side with smoked ham, grilled pork chops or chicken.

Fresh blueberries are available year round and are most abundant in midsummer-ready to 

blend into smoothies, toss into your favorite chicken salad, or sprinkle over lemon 

meringue or cream pie. You should know that blueberries are loaded with antioxidants. 

Studies show that antioxidants may help reduce the buildup of cholesterol that contributes 

to cardiovascular disease, stroke and other age-related diseases.
