Blueberry Melon Prawn & Feta Salad


Blueberry Melon Prawn & Feta Salad.
Today I’d like to share a simple recipe for Blueberry Melon Prawn & Feta Salad.
As always I have some interesting facts about the humble Blueberry, did you know that blueberries can date back many centuries to a north/eastern America & were gathered by the Native Americans & were widely abundant on both northern coasts the Pacific on the west & the Atlantic on the east.
Also by eating a half cup of blueberries, it contains the same amount of antioxidants as 2 1/4 of broccoli 2 1/2 cups of spinach & 2 1/2 cups of corn. Being high in antioxidants this little blue warrior puts a mighty fight in maintaining your inner health, your heart, strokes, cholesterol, decrease’s the risk of ovarian & colon cancer & lower excess sugar levels for diabetics. All that from a little Blueberry ?
