Blueberry Poi image

I created this for fun! It's for vegans and vegetarians or anybody who wants to cut dairy or fats out of their diet. Dreaming about Hawaii, I thought of the poi that I had at a luau. Poi, made from the taro root, has a taste that I thought was similar to tofu!!! So I gave it a little sweetness from honey and poi is light purple-colored so I used blueberries to get that poi look. You could serve this at a summer luau party or eat as a fruit dip. I like it with Mi-Del ginger snaps too! Also, this makes a lot (a full food processor's worth) so cut the recipe in half for fewer people. Enjoy!
