Berrylicious

 

Berries get yummier in spring and summer, so take advantage of this and offer them to your children as a yummy alternative to candy and other sweets. Here are some good ways to serve them:

 •  Strawberry cream cheese sandwich: Sweet and creamy, this sandwich is perfect for breakfast. Spread light cream cheese, a drizzle of honey, and fresh strawberry slices between two slices of whole wheat bread.

 • Berry nutty pancakes: Whip up some whole grain pancakes and top with a nutrient-rich berry sauce. Puree fresh berries in a blender and drizzle over your pancakes for a fruity flavor.

• Berries in a bowl or a baggie: What could be easier?
