Blueberry Curd
As I was browsing ideas to use up the last of our frozen blueberries, I was thinking about other fruit recipes that I’ve made and loved in the past. I was remembering how much I really enjoyed this raspberry curd and figured blueberry curd would also be awesome. So I hit up Google, and came across this recipe from Amanda at Fake Ginger.
I whipped up this curd and was shocked at how PURPLE it came out. You don’t normally see a whole lot of purple foods out there, so I was excited. The recipe made just one small jar of curd which had delicious blueberry taste.
Hubby and I were contemplating how to use up this little jar of Blueberry Curd and came up with a few ideas. I ate some spread on graham crackers with some buttercream that I had in the fridge.
Hubby on the other hand, spooned some over some vanilla ice cream. Be sure to check back later to see what I did with the rest of the curd.

Blueberry Curd
A great way to use blueberries
Yield: 1 cup
Ingredients:
1 cup blueberries
1 Tbsp water
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter
3 eggs, lightly beaten
Directions:
Put blueberries and water in saucepan and cook over low heat until blueberries are very soft, about 10 minutes.
Press mixture through a fine mesh sieve and put liquid back into saucepan off of the heat. Stir everything together and cook on medium-low heat, stirring constantly until mixture is thickened, about 5 minutes. The curd will continue to thicken as it cools.

I just made Quinoa for the first time myself this week. Love the addition of pomegranate. I will have to try it out!
I love quinoa! Never tried it with these ingredients. Great recipe!
I love quinoa, especially in breakfast form! Never had it with pomegranates, yay!
Glad you liked! It’s one of my favorites. Also packages up really nicely for a healthy take-to-work lunch!
I adore quinoa because it is so healthy and so filling!
Yum yum yum! What a yummy looking quinoa dish! I love quinoa, so if you’re looking to find more quinoa recipes, feel free to browse my blog. 🙂
I love the versatility of quinoa – once you start cooking with it, it’s hard to stop . . . we think it makes a great breakfast, too! Warmed with milk, fruit & a little maple syrup or agave? Energy for the day!
I love a good quinoa recipe. This one sounds worth a try.
LOVE quinoa and poms 🙂 this looks like a delicious way to enjoy both ingredients!!
don’t worry, I am officially the last one.
I’m glad you tried it! I love quinoa. I think it’s second to Israeli couscous in my book. And pomegranates — love them. This sounds delicious!
I am surprised by the chicken stock! It seems like it should be a sweet dish. I love quinoa and my husband does too!
I have been reading about quinoa the “superfood” and how good it is for us. I bought some awhile back but hadn’t used it so I decided to try your recipe. OMG! I love it! I didn’t have pomegranate seeds and instead of almonds I used toasted pecans and also added orange zest. I will be using quinoa a lot now. Thanks!
