Re: Berry Question

[Guest guest]

Believe it or not -- I just use a regular hand-held vegetable peeler (eek!) to

peel off the skins of my fruits ...For apples, there are corers (all of these

items can be found at Walmart, Target, KMart, Bed,Bath & Beyond, etc; --

Smoothies are the best way to get in your yogurt and your fruit in all at

once... (just add a little honey) and it's heaven! I seem to tolerate mango and

cooked fruit (strawberries peeled and deseeded and blueberries - cooked and

deseeded) okay.

If you want -- you can also make compotes out of the fruit...just chopping them

up, adding a little water and same amount of honey and just letting the juices

run out until it turns syrupy...then whip up some farmers cheese and creme

fraiche (half-n-half cured for 24 hours with yogurt cultures) together...with a

little honey..and its fantastic!

I'm still one month into the diet -- but finally able to tolerate the yogurt

thanks to the smoothies -- so I'm planning to buy lots of fruit for next week

and just blend away! Is thinking about buying a smoothie book too:

Thank you very much for your input. So I will continue having smoothies. Also I

will try and give it a shot with the berries just by cooking them and seeing if

I tolerate their seeds or not. As we all know by now this is a great trial &

error/ cause and effect way of living...
