* KIWI * anyone? (need recipies! :)

[rockin_rep]

I love kiwi and because its really nutritious i'd like to use it somehow other than *straight* ~ mostly to get my family to eat it

I know i can go on line for recipes but wondered if any of you great chefs had any personal favorites?

TIA!

Would they like them in smoothies? I like Strawberry-Kiwi-banana but you can use all different kinds of combinations.

Just put vanilla yogurt, fruit and some juice in a blender with ice. I hide all kinds of stuff in smoothies. Serve with "bendy" straws for extra fun.

I don't know if you can bake with kiwis - I've always eaten them in fruit salads and cold things.

Cut up some kiwis, and put it on tarts along with some other fruits.

I hide all kinds of stuff in smoothies
.

LOL, good idea! I hide food too, like putting baby food carrots and squash in my spaghetti and pizza sauce. Makes me feel better they're getting more nutrition, and they're clueless!

Thanks for all the ideas everyone, please keep them coming!

If you put them in smoothies for people other than your immediate family make sure you let them know because people with allergies to latex should avoid eating kiwi.

I always eat it sliced up. Now I'm off to see what recipes I can find. Thanks for the inspiration!

I'm glad this is about kiwi fruit.
When I first read the title, the only kiwis I could think of were the small flightless birds from New Zealand.
