Brainy Brownies
These are a hit! the kids don't even know their eating blueberries or spinach.
Steps
If using raw spinach , thoroughly wash it , even if the package says prewashed.
Bring spinach or collards and water to boil in a medium pot.
Turn heat to low and allow to simmer for 10 minutes.
If using frozen blueberries , quickly rinse them under cold water to thaw a little , and then drain.
Fill the bowl of your food processor with the blueberries and cooked spinach , along with the lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of water , and puree on high until as smooth as possible.
Stop occasionally to push top contents to bottom.
If necessary , add the rest of the water to make a fairly smooth puree.
This amount of spinach and blueberries makes only about 1 cup of puree.
Double the recipe if you want to store another cup of the puree.
It will store in the refrigerator up to 2 days , or you can freeze 1 / 4 cup portions in sealed plastic bags or small plastic containers.
