No Bake Saskatoon Berry Cheesecake

Not everyone knows that Saskatoon Berries are closely related to the apple family. They’re high in fibre, protein and antioxidants and are considered a better source of calcium than red meats!
They’re Canada’s Superfruit and it doesn’t really matter if you eat them straight from the bush or in your favourite pie.
