We're nearing the end of summer which means blackberries are in full swing, and while we don't have any fresh you can still find them at the farmer's markets and along the side of the road. Amazing how everything was so early this year! Here are some recipes that can help spark some inspiration!

Food for thought:
Did you know blackberries are really good for your health? While low in sodium these delicious specks of black gold are only 62 calories per cup, making them perfect for those watching their calorie in take. We all know from blueberries the darker the fruit the higher the level of antioxidants are, this has a direct effect on lowering the risk of some cancers. Blackberries can cause the tightening of tissue and they keep your brain alert.
