Recipe Sharing: Berry Crisp

At Costco on Saturday, we got swept away in the beautiful fruit. Giant grapefruit... cartons of strawberries... a flat of blueberries... yum. It always looks so good! We came home with 2 lbs. of blueberries and 1 lb. of blackberries. And while we snack on them and I top my morning yogurt or oatmeal with both, we still have a lot to eat and the clock is ticking!

Tonight we were feeling like a dessert, so Rob found a great berry crisp recipe -- complete with a 1/2 cup of butter and 1/2 cup of brown sugar. Sounds delicious, but not waistline friendly.

I did some Internet searching of my own and pieced together the following from a few different recipes. Enjoy!
