Kiwifruit is cheap as chips at the moment. 

Why is this? The season has started, China doesn't want them any more? Green is out? Over loaded with the furry little things? 

There are so many things we can do with kiwifruit!

You can make: 

• A cocktail (kiwi, lime, soda, mint, coconut sugar)
• Jam
• Chutney
• Marinade ( really good with duck)
• Chopped fresh ! great source of vitamin c especially for our kids
• Salads
• Smoothies ( kiwi, banana, orange juice and coconut water)
• Cheesecake ( make a normal cheesecake and top with kiwi jelly!)
• Upside down cake ( replace the figs and apples for kiwifruit)
• Salsa ( summer is coming people!)
• Dehydrate ( 5kg can be taken down to 500 gm and then stored for up to a year!)

But I find a sorbet is  a wonderful way of celebrating the plentiful fruit.

Make heaps! freeze it down for the summer that just around the corner! or just have it in the winter!
