Spring has sprung!
It’s amazing what sunshine can do for everyone’s mood, isn’t it? Fresh air and sunshine are like the prescription for a good day. Add in lots of budding trees and flowers and it’s darn near perfect.
First thing I look forward to as the temperatures creep up, and the sun comes out? Daily walks outdoors. I really loathe the treadmill. Unless I can get myself wrapped up in a good series to binge on Netflix, I have a hard time keeping myself on there. I mean, you walk 3 miles away from home — you have to walk back, right? Treadmill, walk 30 minutes, boredom sets in and bam! I am off and onto something else!
Another love of spring? The massive amounts of fresh fruits I can get my hands on. Especially the berries! Whether I am topping my yogurt or my salads with them, or blending them into a smoothie, their freshness always makes my day start off on the right foot.
Recently, I discovered this juice by R.W. Knudsen, called Just Blueberry. R.W. Knudsen’s Single Fruit Juices are 100% juice, unsweetened and undiluted to provide the maximum taste associated with each respective fruit. The juices are Non-GMO Project Verified and available in 32 oz. glass bottles. They come in a variety of flavors, like Just Black Cherry™, Just Blueberry™, Just Cranberry™, Just Pomegranate™, Organic Just Concord Grape™, and Organic Just Tart Cherry™. Want to try something new? Pair fresh blueberries and Just Blueberry® juice with soft tofu (yes, tofu!) for extra flavor in your daily smoothie!
This delicious juice got me to thinking about my favorite ways to use blueberries. Topping salads and yogurt happens often, like I said, using them in smoothies, and also in pancakes and muffins, too. Just last summer I made these fruit filled sweet crepes that were to die for!
Recently, my youngest son was talking about a dessert pizza at his and my older son’s favorite pizza place. I have always wanted to try and mimic it, and had never tried until now.
Why, oh WHY did I wait?!?
Perfect for spring celebrations! Would be great for brunches, graduation parties, or a delicious Mother’s Day dessert! So many ways to enjoy this delicious pizza.
Mix up your favorite pizza crust. I always use a box mix you just add warm water to, and let it rise.
Press into a circle, form your crust and pierce with a fork. Pre-bake the crust.
Mix up a cheesecake mixture of egg, cream cheese, sugar and sour cream.
Spread over the prebaked crust, and top with fresh blueberries.
Top with streusel topping and bake for about 12 minutes.
Mix up a glaze of powdered sugar and milk.
Drizzle warm pizza.

This looks like total dessert comfort food. Love that streusel action on top!
ohhh This looks super yummo!!
The recipe calls for whipped cream cheese. Do you buy it this way or use a beater to whip up regular cream cheese?
Philadelphia makes whipped cream cheese — it’s really light and fluffy. It’s in a plastic container like the flavored kinds.
Hi Michaela,
My daughter always picks her blueberries and of course shares–(YUM) so would the 6 oz in your recipe be about 1 cup? Thanks for all your great recipes.
Yes! That is exactly right! 🙂
Is it possible to make this with a cherry pie filling instead of fresh blueberries? Or would I need to use fresh cherries (pits removed obviously).
I think that might work! If you did want to use cherries and not pit them, you could try the frozen ones?
