are there other greens that can be used instead of spinach? What about swiss chard or beet leaves?
Hafsa Hasan —Reply
Can we use cherries instead of blueberries?
Michele Olivier —Reply
Yes, I think that would taste amazing.

I cannot really find plums nowadays … Any other fruit I can use to replace plum in this recipe? Thanks.
Michele Olivier —Reply
You can use apples, plums or frozen peaches in place of the plums. I actually found some frozen plums at Whole Foods the other day, but have no idea of the cost. Let me know what you use and how it turns out.
xo, Michele
