July is finally here, and at California Giant Berry Farms, that means one thing: National Blueberry Month! Not only are blueberries bursting with sweet-tart flavor, but they are also packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber. Whether you’re looking for a quick weekday breakfast, a refreshing summer salad, or a show-stopping brunch treat, blueberries are the ultimate versatile ingredient.

To help you celebrate all month long, we’ve rounded up seven of our favorite blueberry recipes. From lattes to nourish bowls, here’s how to get your berry fix:
