    Hi all

    I've been lurking here for a while now reading all the threads and taking notes for my plan to become OS in 2009 - have already started with rubber chicken and artisan bread!

    Anyway, in true OS mode, I went round the reduced section of the supermarket last week and bought 8 kiwi fruit reduced to 25p with the plan to take them to work for lunch. However, typically they have satthere all week unused and are now quite soft. I don't want to thrown them so thought I'd post here for some recipe ideas!

    Many thanks!
    Tracy :-)

    apparently you can freeze them until someone more knowledgeable comes along with some ideas of what to do with them (read the bit under buying and storing)

    Use them in a juice or smoothie, or mix into yogurt & muesli, or have them on your porridge.

    why??! I don't understand!
  • peel and slice and use to decorate a pavlova with creme chantilly, or if you have agar agar (veggie gelatin) you can make jelly, meat jelly doesnt set with kiwi

    .... but it ain't a recipe :rolleyes: :p:D I have no idea as I'm alergic to the things, so I'll add this to the existing thread on what to do with kiwis ;)
