Food Storage Recipe - Blueberry Dump Cake


 I have been finding all of these quick and low-cost recipes for dump cakes etc. I am going to start filling a shelf in my pantry of just pie fillings. Cherry, blueberry, apple, and so on. YUMMMMMMM

This one you just pour a can of blueberry pie filling into a baking dish. Pour the contents of martha white blueberry muffin mix on top of the blueberry pie filling. Put puts of butter over that whole thing. Bake using instructions from the blueberry mix. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream.
