Summer pudding.

Line a glass bowl with slices of pound cake, then layer blueberries and more cake in the bowl until you have a layer of cake on top. Put a plate on top and then a heavy can to press it down. Refrigerate overnight, turn out onto a plate (I line my bowl with plastic wrap to make this easy), serve with whipped cream.

I usually make this with frozen berries--with fresh, you might crush them a little and macerate with sugar for an hour or so before hand to release some juices. The idea is that the berry juices soak into the pound cake and the layers sort of meld together.

You should call that NPR show, the Splendid Table. That Lynne Loretta Casper is great with that kind of question, "What do I do with tons of such and such?"

How about making blueberry syrup for drinks (alcoholic or non). Simmer the berries in simple syrup & strain out the solids. Then use the syrup to make a drink with seltzer or club soda & clear liquor.

I don't have the proportions, but this recipe was in the NYT a few decades ago and became a standard in our family.

Soak cleaned blueberries in pure maple syrup overnight in the fridge. Right before serving, whip heavy cream (NOT sweetened). Fold blueberries into the cream. Serve.

Maybe 1 cup syrup to 1 quart berries? Just enough to coat all the berries, but not so much that you are wasting the syrup.

I enjoy blueberries with plain, lowfat greek yogurt.

And if you can't manage to eat them all, they freeze really well and make a great frozen treat.

2 C blueberries
1/4 C sugar
1-2 C ice
Water to thin if necessary

Use blender. Tastes amazing and the blueberries get kind of thick from being pureed, so it's not thin and icy but smooth and creamy.

Blueberry Flummery
My grandmother used to make this and we kids all loved it. Made it myself a few times but can't find the recipe right now. Found this on the internet and it looks pretty much like the recipe I had used.

Why not make blueberry smoothies?

Or parfait with granola and yogurt.

This is a delicious way to eat berries. Recipe is for blackberries but blueberry would work:

If you really want to do NO cooking at all, this is even better. I eat this with fruit ALL the time:

I got carried away with blueberries being on sale and have a lot to use up. Any ideas of ways to use them without having to turn on the oven and heat up the house?
My kids are weird and don't like them in pancakes.
