We were blessed to have four generations in our household celebrating Father’s Day. I have always lived out-of-state from the rest of my family, so usually we have always celebrated holidays and birthdays without extended family. But my parents have been visiting for the past two weeks so it was very exciting to be able to have my dad here for Father’s Day. Then of course my husband was here and my son-in-law was here celebrating his first Father’s day. How fun it was and a beautiful sunny day too.
If my father is here than there has to be dessert, and of course the simplest vitamix vegan vanilla ice cream. We celebrated with Rhubarb Blueberry Crisp. It’s gluten free and and can be vegan too. With rhubarb coming from our garden and blueberries from the freezer. With plenty of rhubarb to pick, there should be more rhubarb blueberry crisp’s in our future.
This crisp is pretty quick and simple to make. I made it and let it bake while we were eating dinner.
