This blueberry oatmeal is a great way to start the day! I have developed this recipe over the years. It's delicious, light, and great with milk to help cool it down. You can replace the milk with soy milk if desired. You can add the blueberries earlier in the cooking process if you like them hotter and plumper.

The Best Bean and Ham Soup
Legume fans who enjoy 7-bean soup will love this extra beany version made with a dried 15-bean mix. I make this hearty soup using the ham bone from our Easter spiral ham and serve it with corn muffins and fresh fruit. It makes a huge pot of soup, so invite some friends over or just freeze several portions for later use. Remember to soak the beans the night before you make the soup.
