  5. Gently fold in the blueberries.

  6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  7. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

  8. While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth.

  9. Once the cake is completely cooled, drizzle the lemon glaze over the top.

Enjoy this tangy and moist lemon blueberry yogurt cake, a delightful dessert that combines the bright flavors of lemon and blueberry in a healthier treat!

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

The Cantina Chicken Mexican Pizza is one of Taco Bell’s lighter options compared to beef-based menu items — slow-roasted chicken is lower in saturated fat than seasoned ground beef, and the fresh toppings like purple cabbage and pico de gallo add fiber and vitamins. If you’re watching sodium, pairing it with water instead of a fountain drink and skipping an extra side keeps the meal more balanced. The new Jalapeño Citrus Salsa is also a flavorful, low-calorie way to add heat and brightness without reaching for something heavier like sour cream or a creamy sauce.
