Shop bought frozen fruit

Hi I buy fresh fruit twice a week to go in my porridge and I have a fresh fruit salad about 5 times a week but last week while in Morrison I bought their Blackforest Frozen Fruit Mix 500g for £1.99 so today I added some to my porridge after defrosting and I must admit it was delicious so my question is could anyone recommend any other frozen fruits and maybe the best place to buy them. Thanks

Their frozen mixed vegetables taste reall good as well x

Possibly just me but I hate the way frozen fruit tastes mushy once defrosted.

I bought Sainsbury's fruit salad mix several years ago and it was disgusting! Tasted nothing like fruit at all!

I agree with you about fruit salad mix but I dont think freezing has a detrimental effect on berries.

I use frozen berries in jugs of Pimms. They act like ice cubes, chilling the drink, without diluting it. I always get compliments on my Pimms!

Another vote for these, they're really good value for the money. They're especially great in winter if you fancy a berry crumble or some compote for breakfast, and they make nice smoothies too.

Another vote for Sainsbury Bluberries. I usually buy when they are 3 for £5. Fab with porridge or into yoghurt.:D

Often if you go to a late market, you can pick up raspberries/blackcurrants at a fraction of the cost, just wahs them, spread them out on kitchen paper, dry a little, pop them back in their box and freeze. Much cheaper than supermarket fruit.

Even at full price I got 2 decent punnets of raspberries for £1. I get about a dozen and freeze them or make jam.

Do you have a blender. I can see you look after your health.

My daily dose of fruit and veg
Raspberries
strawberries
half a banana
half a carrot
2 sprouts (I promise, you just cannot detect them)
mixed nuts.
some fruit juice.

Lasts me all day and it really is lovely
I do this because I hate all vegetables and this way I get them into my system.
