Blueberry Fruit Salad with Blueberry Dressing

May 4, 2016 By Betsy Cohen

Blueberry Fruit Salad with Blueberry Dressing is refreshing and will be perfect on your dinner or picnic table. An easy recipe, too!

Blueberry Fruit Salad with Blueberry Dressing

I couldn’t wait to get in the kitchen and get busy when I heard that Wish Farms was sponsoring a #BlueberryToss contest for attendees of Food Wine Conference.  The only problem was that I was so focused on what I was doing that I missed the line that stated the dish had to be a salad.  Not a huge problem since I was able to submit Blueberry Cream for the #MakeItWithMilk contest.

It did mean that I had to get back to work to come up with a recipe that would include at least one serving size of blueberries and fit under the description of ‘salad’.

It didn’t take me long to realize that what I really wanted to make was a blueberry fruit salad and top it with a blueberry dressing.  The question was which fruits did I want to include and how did I want to make the dressing.

Blueberries taste great with raspberries and mangoes and since I was making the blueberry fruit salad in glass containers, it was important that the fruits selected offered a bright pop of color. I showcased the blueberrries on the bottom and top with a layer of raspberries and a layer of cut mangoes in between.

This is Desserts Required so it made sense to have a blueberry dressing that is fit for dessert.  I processed blueberries, mascarpone cheese, maple syrup, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice and a pinch of salt in my mini food prep.  A friend of mine who is a superb cook and baker was over while I added a little more of this and a little more of that.  After a dozen tasting spoons we knew that I had an incredible dressing.  I can’t wait for you to try it, too!
