Lemon bars have always been one of my favorite desserts.  I love how tart and gooey they are.  They always seem so refreshing so I never feel guilty eating too many. 😉  I have tried my hand at making lemon bars many times with no success.  I have even bought the box of lemon bar mix from the store with no success.  Finally, my grandmother helped me make some for a church event last year and they turned out!  Not only did they turn out, they were the hit of the party!

Well last week the kids and I went over to my grandparents house to pick a bunch of lemons from their tree.  The kids have been asking to have a lemonade stand, so I juiced a bunch of lemons to make some lemonade mix for their stand.  Since I had so much lemon juice, and some beautiful lemons for testing, I thought it was the perfect time to make some lemon bars.  I wanted to change them up a little bit and now that berries are coming into season, a blueberry lemon bar recipe was just what this lemon bar lover was craving.

This recipe is adapted from the Barefoot Contessa’s lemon bar recipe.

I ended up sharing these lovelies with some of my friends and they were big fans and thought the addition of the blueberries was amazing!

Truth be told, I only shared them for fear I would eat the entire pan by myself. 😉
