We planted blueberry bushes in the backyard several years ago and are so thankful we did!  Around late June or early July each year we enjoy watching the berries ripen on the bushes and seeing the shear weight of the berries pull each branch out and down toward the ground. This Blueberry Cobbler with Flax and Chia recipe is beyond simple and makes great use of all of the blueberries weighing down those bushes outside. 

The recipe is below but if you would like to see the post we did on harvesting the blueberries you can click HERE.
