RE: Don't believe the nay sayers - you can have fruit on keto!

I just looked up the season and it said "The peak of availability is in July and August. " Hopefully there will still be some around in September. I wonder if they freeze?

I'm just imagining John eating tamarillo sandwiches with a spoon!

Oh, thanks Deb. That may play a big part on when to 'Cross the Ditch.' I don't remember freezing them, probably because I never had any left over. I also miss fejoas. They were always so plentiful and we probably took them for granted when we lived in N.Z.

I haven't mentioned to him yet that I am telling tales out of school but I will have to ask how exactly how he managed to eat soggy tamarillo sandwiches without his mates giving him a hard time. 😊

We freeze feijoas whole. They'e no good for eating on their own when defrosted, but still good for smoothies and baking. I haven't tried tamarillos either.

Yes, I do remember that about feijoas. I saw feijoa ice-cream at a fete here in Brisbane last year but was too busy with my camera to stop and try it. Have you tried it yourself?

No, I haven't. But this recipe from Nadia Lim sounds good https://nadialim.com/recipe/instant-feijoa-ice-cream/

Ooooh yes. That does look delicious......and heathy., which is a great combination. I like the sound of adding mint into the mix.
