Baked Blueberry Tart

Caught up with some good friends that I haven't seen for a while and said I would bring the roast chicken for dinner. Cheated by bringing a pre-cooked chook (Farro Fresh does a great free range chicken but note to self, not so good reheated) so thought I should put a little effort into dessert. Been waiting for a chance to try this and I'm pleased to say it was a hit.
