Oh, how I love it when berry season arrives. I feel like I'm on a treasure hunt at the grocery store or farmers market, discovering mounds of jewel-colored strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and more.

While these fresh gems are fantastic on their own, I love to find ways to use them in all kinds of recipes. I just had to share the recipes for this beautiful berried treasure — it'll make any occasion extra special.
