Kiwifruit sauce

For the last week, I’ve been trying to find creative ways to get rid of foodstuff before it’s too late. “Never buy groceries on an empty stomach, my mother always warned me. I usually try to heed her advice, but for my last trip to the store, I must of had a brain fart, so I ended up with almost every fruit and vegetable under the sun.

Trying to get rid of way too many kiwifruit resulted in a tasty sauce that’s delicious over vanilla ice cream. Something has to balance out all those fruits and vegetables! Here’s what I did:

  • peel the kiwifruit – use a teaspoon and scoop the fruit out (I had about 10)
  • put in a food processor
  • add 1 cup white sugar
  • add 2 teaspoons of lemon or lime juice mixed with zest (adds a nice tang to the syrup/sauce)
  • simmer for about an hour

I poured the sauce into an empty bottle and keep it in the refrigerator. Deeee-lish!
