2 teaspoons Lime Juice; **Note
2 teaspoons Sugar; To 2 T
1 cup Blueberries; ***Note
16 ounces Canned Peaches; ****Note
2 teaspoons Slivered Almonds; *****Note

Directions

*NOTE: I didn't have any fresh apricots so I used canned in their own juice, drained

**NOTE: or the juice from 1 lime ***NOTE: I didn't have fresh blueberries so I used frozen, and I thawed them

****NOTE: I added canned peaches in their own juice, drained - - Peaches were not in the original recipe *****NOTE: Original recipe did not include the slivered almonds...I just added them in for texture

If you are using fresh apricots cut them in half through the stem end and pit them. Put the halves in the steaming basket cut sides down, cover, and steam until just tender, 12 - 15 minutes. Use a spatula or large spoon to transfer to apricots to a bowl and refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hrs. (I just put the canned ones in a bowl after I drained their juice.) Add the lime juice, sugar and blueberries (I added the peaches also) to the apricots, toss gently, and taste for sugar; add more if needed. Cover and let macerate in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Serve chilled. (Just before serving I sprinkled the slivered almonds on top.) It was very good considering I didn't use anything that was fresh (all out of season/not in my house right now) and didn't steam anything...just mixed it all together and chilled it.
