Sometimes the simplest recipes taste the best-and this is one of those recipes. Kids love this simple sauce because of the color and the flavor. Pour the sauce over plain yogurt, fruit salad, ice cream, pancakes, angel food cake and anything else you and the kids can think of!

Ingredients:

• 2 cups (8 ounces) fresh blueberries
  
• 2 tablespoons orange juice or apple juice
  
• 2 teaspoons sugar
  

  *Children should be supervised by an adult.
  

Instructions:


1. Put the blueberries in a strainer and pick out any green or shriveled berries. Rinse them under cold running water and allow the water to drain out.




2. Pour the clean berries into a small pot that has a lid. Measure in the orange or apple juice and sprinkle the sugar on top. Mix the berries with a wooden spoon. Cover the pot and cook the berries over medium-low heat. Stir the sauce after about 3 minutes. Cook the sauce for 2 more minutes, until the berries burst and make some juice. Turn off the stove and let the sauce stand uncovered for at least 3 minutes so the sauce can get thick. Serve blueberry sauce over any of your favorite foods.
