#MenuMonday: Berry Patch Pie

#MenuMonday-Berry Patch Pie

This week for #MenuMonday we have a special recipe to share!  Since it is Memorial Day  we chose a berry patch pie recipe from tasteofhome.com which just so happens to be red, white and blue. The fruity flavor is also perfect for a warm spring or summer day.  This dessert is mouthwatering and guests will be asking you for the recipe for this great dish after the first bite! The recipe will be the perfect addition to your Memorial Day festivities. Tasteofhome.com recommends pairing this dessert with a sweet white wine such as Moscato or Riesling
