Blueberry Sauce for Grilled Beef Steaks or Tenderloin image

I have not made this yet. Posting here for safekeeping as I lost the recipe once. Servings and times are a "guestimate". The only thing I remember about this recipe is that I gave it to a friend a few years ago who wanted to make an anniversary dinner for herself and her husband and they both raved about it. I'm not sure whether or not it was more from the flavor or the fact that she'd successfully cooked a meal that they both enjoyed. ***insert blowing raspberries smilie here in case she ever sees this***. LOL I don't see it on Zaar so I'm going to go ahead and make it public.
