Next, grab some blueberry Greek yogurt. Any brand will work.

Then, using a toothpick or skewer, grab a blueberry. (Make sure it's on there good, or else you might lose it!)

Next, dip your blueberry into the yogurt.

Roll it around so the entire surface is covered in a thick layer of yogurt.

Carefully slip your yogurt-covered blueberry off of the toothpick and onto a sheet of wax paper. I'm using a cutting board, but you can use a plate if you prefer.

I wasn't planning to make a lot, so I put a lot of space around each blueberry.

Repeat the process until your sheet, board, or plate is completely covered.

Pop them off of the wax paper and into a bowl or sandwich bag.
