Step 1
Whip egg whites in a clean bowl with an electric mixer on high until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes.
Step 2
Gradually add sugar while beating continuously until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 3 more minutes.
Step 3
Spoon meringue into 4 mounds on parchment paper, then use the back of a spoon to create a shallow nest indent in each.
Step 4
Refrigerate nests for at least 8 minutes while you whip cream until soft peaks form in a separate bowl.
Step 5
Top each nest with 2 tbsp lemon curd, a dollop of whipped cream, and a handful of blueberries.
