Kiwi Berries! I have never seen these cuties before and was super excited to get some home because I love kiwis. These \u2018berries\u2019 are about the size of an olive and have smooth non-fuzzy skins like a grape. However, the picture on the box indicated that it looks like a real kiwi fruit inside. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever had this much excitement in the produce aisle. I may or may not have made a scene by squealing. Anyway&#8230;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div>\n\tThe minute I put my groceries away, I rinsed off some Kiwi Berries and sliced once in half. Oh my gah! So cute! This tiny little fruit was adorable! Ok, so in addition to being cute, I had to try it. The fruit did indeed taste like a kiwi but a little mellower in taste. It was sweet, juicy and the miniscule kiwi seeds inside are fun. My mind was racing as to how to best display and serve this adorableness. I\u2019m thinking these would be fun in salads, champagne cocktails, fruit salads, desserts and yes &#8211; &nbsp;cheese boards! Hey, I could go for some cheese right about now.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>\n\tI pulled out my favorite cheese board (it\u2019s a Nautical Ship\u2019s Wheel &amp; the handles are assorted cheese knives &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/pointlomagifts.com\/Cheese-Board-Set-Ships-Wheel-Design-SHIPWHEEL-SET.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Available Here from Point Loma Gifts<\/a>) and added some cheeses, nuts and my new found cuteness, Kiwi Berries.<\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div class=\"rtecenter\">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Kiwi Berries Cheese Board Nautical Cheese Wheel\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/cheesewheel.png\" style=\"width: 500px; height: 500px;\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>\n\tI served this beautiful snack to my daughter after school and needless to say she thought the whole combo was a hit. This nosh was also nutritionally awesome &#8211; protein from nuts and cheese and then get ready for this\u2026. The Kiwi Berry is one of the most nutrient-dense of all major fruits, with close to 20 vital nutrients they are considered a \u201csuper fruit\u201d.<\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>\n\tI made sure to let my daughter know that she was nutritionally balanced for the day, because I planned that an all. (smirk)<\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>\n\tI reached out to the Hurst Berry Farm about the Kiwi Berries and received a prompt reply with great info! The Kiwi Berries are grown in different areas of the Pacific Northwest with the Willamette Valley being one of those locations. &nbsp;They are a short season fruit so it\u2019s not they are not available year round. &nbsp;Generally the window for the domestic fruit is September thru November. &nbsp;Another of our growing regions is Chile. &nbsp;We work closely with our growers there to be able to have a supply that will also hit the markets in February and March, weather cooperating\u2026<\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>\n\tYou can visit the <a href=\"http:\/\/hursts-berry.com\/kiwiberries.php\" target=\"_blank\">Hurst Berry Farm website<\/a> and see if they are available in your neck of the woods<\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>\n\tIf you can get your hands on some, I suggest you do! Your family will love them and the fact that they are seasonal makes them even more special.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>\n\tHere\u2019s a great idea from Hurst Farms &#8211; tiny Kiwi Berries on a lime tart or cheesecake!<\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div class=\"rtecenter\">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Kiwi Berries on a Lime Tart\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/pie.png\" style=\"width: 500px; height: 567px;\" \/>&nbsp;<br \/>\n\t(Photo from Hurst Farms)<\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Look what I found in the berry section today at Sprouts!
