Recipe Tip
Berrylicious
Berries are fiber giants. Just 1 cup of blackberries or raspberries gives you a whopping 8 grams of fiber, one-third of your daily fiber needs.
Substitution
If you like, use 3 bags (10 oz each) Cascadian Farm® frozen harvest berries in place of the blueberries, strawberries and raspberries.

Delicious!
This was spectacular! Everyone enjoyed it, and they all want to know when I am making it again! We did not do ice cream, but you don't need any for this delicious treat!

T/B Granola Crisp
This was a great dessert! A bit on the tangy side, not to sweet. Everyone loved it at our family get together and all asked for the recipe. A great cuddle up in a quilt and watch a movie kinda snack when served warm! This has become a "keeper" in my recipe file!

Really good!
It was extremely delicious! Though I would love to find an even faster way to do it... I'm always very lazy!

too good!
this is really good, so good, in fact, that I made it four times! I don't use the ice cream in order to save on calories, etc.

I made this recipe last night and it was wonderful. For breakfast I put it on top of some cottage cheese and it was very tasty. Nice way to end and start your day.

The triple berry was very easy to make and tasted great! I used the Cascadian frozen berries. Even my family enjoyed it.
