Very Berry Delight: Easy, No-Bake Dessert Made with Driscoll’s Berries

July 8, 2013

I am a member of the Collective Bias® Social Fabric® Community. I created this recipe with Driscoll’s Berries, that I purchased at Lucky Supermarket. This shop has been compensated as part of a social shopper insights study for Collective Bias and their client.

Summer is my favorite season of the year. I love spending time at the beach, going on vacation and hosting summer get-togethers. What I don’t like, is spending a lot of time in a hot kitchen cooking. I try to make as many grilled meals & no bake desserts as possible.

When I invite people over for a cookout, I’m always thinking about the presentation of my meal. Looks are everything when it comes to hosting summer festivities, and I want my food to look like I spent a long time preparing it… even if I didn’t! Such is the case with my Very Berry Delight, there’s no cooking involved, yet the finished product looks (and tastes) amazing!

First things first, when I’m going to make something, I want to use the freshest ingredients possible. That’s where Lucky Supermarket comes in. They carry Driscoll’s Berries, and that’s the brand I prefer using. Lucky Supermarket is packed full of fresh finds, I’m always surprised by all the goodies I find there. I found these Lychee fruit on my last trip, how cool is that?!photo-227

My Very Berry Delight dessert is quick to make and doesn’t require many ingredients. photo-231 You can use pudding cups or whip up some instant pudding, whichever you prefer. I bought both, since I was undecided at the time. I went with the ready-made tapioca in the end. I chose Driscoll’s strawberries & blueberries this time; in the past I’ve made this dessert with raspberries & blackberries. You can view more of my Lucky’s Supermarket trip in my Google+ photo album.photo-230photo-228 Before I get to the recipe, I want to tell y’all about a contest Driscoll’s Berries is currently hosting. It’s called The Berry Best Sweepstakes, it runs until July 30, 2013 & you could win a KitchenAid Blender & a year’s supply of berries! Sounds sweet to me!  (pun intended!) Can’t win if you don’t enter, so go sign up & good luck! Now, on to my delicious recipe! I hope you’ll try it next time you play hostess.
