Default Uses for frozen fruit

I have several bags of frozen fruit that I bought for smoothies but they
never got used and I doubt that smoothies will be made now given our colder
weather. There is a bag of peach slices. I know those can be made into a
crisp but what about the berries? I think most bags are mixed. I think the
mixture is strawberry, raspberry and blueberry. Might be plain strawberries
too. All unsweetened. Can those be made into a crisp or added to the peach
crisp? I'd like them gone to free up some space.

We don't need any jam and wouldn't eat any kind of sweet syrup. What else
can I do with them? Thanks!

Dump them in a bowl and eat them still frozen. It's like a popsicle,
but with nutrition.

Well here we go. I'll bite.
All suggestions submitted for your disapproval. :-D

1) Bag of strawberries, buy pound cake and make shortcake
with some whipped cream.

2) Peach slices with vanilla ice cream is so good.

3) Put them ALL together and make some mixed fruit pies.

4) Save them for more smoothies. If people like them so much
there's no reason they can't still enjoy them even if
it's cold outside. Will be warm inside, right?

5) Keep the damn berries in your freezer until you want them

6) Eat thawed berries with vanilla ice cream.

7) Give them to your gardener

8) give them to the poor guy you are cooking for
and his dog

9) Eat them plain - fruit is good for you

10) send them to Bruce

11) Just toss them out

12) Quit buying in bulk so often

HTH! ;0

I use frozen peaches in baked oatmeal. DH loves it and I make a pan
about once a week.

Or you cold do pies or small hand pies. Blueberry gallette is quite
nice.

I've done most of them but the postage to send them to Bruce was
prohibitive.

Don't eat ice cream.

I didn't know if the berries would go well in pie. I feared they would break
down to mush. I have made strawberry pie but only with fresh, raw berries.

I don't want them in there till summer. Only one person here eats smoothies
and she seems to have gone off of them.

These are not bulk. They are small bags that were purchased on one of those
sales where you had to buy four bags to get the sale price. There are four
bags.

Fershure !

Â*Melt a stick of butter or marg in an oven safe 2- 4 qtÂ* pan

Mix together :

1 cup flour

1 cup sugar

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1/3 cup powdered milk

3/4 cup water - or just use a cup of milk -

pour batter over melted butter , DO NOT MIX

pour 1 quart of fruit - drained if canned - we often sub the fruit juice
for the water - over the batter

bake at 350° for an hour or until browned on top

fresh blackberries require added sugar - 1 cup to 4 cups berries and a
teaspoon of almond flavoring

Â*Peaches like a sprinkling of cloves

Â* I like it fresh out of the oven with vanilla ice cream , no matter
the fruit . Try it with fruit cocktail , the Boy Scouts loved it .

Costco published a recipe for Cherry-Berry Pie and I have seen recipes
for Berry Pie with mixed berries.

Hi Doris! Nice to see you again! I cherry-pick my reading so may have
missed you.

Personally if she has a few fruit lovers and wants a fast fix, I'd get
some cresent roll dough and make little fruit pies with them. Simple
and easy.

I don't think anyone is a fruit lover in Julie's house. It appears
"someone" got on a fruit smoothie kick and then got tired of them. I
doubt the weather has anything to do with it. Julie reacts like an
on-demand app. She bought bags of frozen fruit because "someone" said
they wanted smoothies. That doesn't mean they wanted smoothies every
day for the rest of their life.

I wonder what she's going to fill the freezer with when she gets rid of
the fruit?

Dunno but we are all having fun discussing ideas for the use and that
may help some of us!

Hey, I got to many grapes some time back. I ended up freezing them.
Any ideas there? We've been nibbling them frozen. They are working
fine for that but ideas will be welcome! THey are purple seedless
sorts (skin still on).

Ooh! No eggs! I could even eat this. Not sure that I have enough fruit as I
came home to a warm bag on the floor. I didn't get into the freezer though.
