RASPBERRIES! Don’t you love them? And DESSERT? Gotta love it too!  Please run and make this raspberry dessert recipe with a super yummy sauce that just zings in your mouth!

Do you know what my biggest problem with raspberries is? Buying them. They are so very expensive! We have solved that problem by growing them ourselves.  Just a few plants can give you an abundant harvest!  Here's what I picked today (after not picking for several days) and what we have in the freezer! Crazy but I love it!!!

Red White and Blueberry muffins: Sugar Free and Low Fat

Kim Brush4 Comments

Berries are the thing here. We recently transplanted over 100 raspberry plants and before that we moved a TON of strawberry plants from the raised bed strawberry patch. This week my daughter has been picking every evening. We’ve got a great start on getting our years worth of strawberries in the freezer. So in honor of Memorial Day and the sweet berries that we’ve been picking, I want to share this low fat sugar-free muffin recipe that we’ve been enjoying. There is even a gluten free version of these Red, White and Blueberry muffins!

Next Garden Adventures:  Blueberries

My yearly goal with our berry patch is to grow enough organic berries that we don't need to buy any in the off-season. In 2016, we did it with strawberries and raspberries!!!! My next garden adventure is to find out if my soil will work for blueberry plants.
