With the lazy days of summer, we enjoy long, relaxed evenings with family and friends, often cooking and entertaining at home. Backyard cookouts can be both economical and fun when using favorite ingredients in interesting new ways.

Fortunately, summer brings an abundance of fresh juicy blueberries, and when used in unexpected ways, they become that exciting ingredient in recipes such as the Blueberry-Apricot Pot Pie.

When cooking for family or friends, pork chops are a tasty, thrifty option. With Teriyaki Pork Chops with Spicy Blueberry Relish most of the work is done long before mealtime so there more time to enjoy yourself. When you take the meat off the grill onto serving plates, top each chop with some spicy relish. The savory flavors of the meat contrast perfectly with the sweet, spicy relish. Keep the blueberry relish recipe handy and use it again when you grill pork tenderloin, salmon or chicken, using the same marinade recipe.
