Blueberry Lemon Bread

This stuff is great and has quickly become a regular item on rotation in this house. My kids especially love it as a sandwich with cream cheese--definitely a school lunch staple.  And because of the Greek yogurt-it's pretty dense and very filling.  Enjoy! 1.5 cups blueberries (I used frozen and just coated them in a little flour before mixing them…
