Wild Blueberry and BBQ Chicken Calzone
Inspired by a classic calzone, this sweet and savory combination of wild blueberries, bacon crumbles, and BBQ chicken provides a tasty breakfast or lunch. Make sure you use wild blueberries to make sure you get the bold blueberry flavor your students are looking for. Pair the calzone with a wild blueberry sauce to provide ½ cup of fruit.
