Thanks for sharing your successful experimentation with the peaches and flaxseed. Have you done any other experimenting or thought through other ideas or places you could use flaxseed or insert fruit to bring sweetness to a dish?

Hi,
Thanks for moving me, I’ll remember that next time.

I’ve roasted apples with skin on and pineapple in a 400 oven...have used frozen pineapple also successfully...any firm fruit holds up well. What I did with the peach I have done with plums. So often the fruit we buy is not sweet but if you sauté it in a little butter or olive oil you’ll bring out the sweetness. I use pineapple in a stir fry often.

Flaxseed meal in meatball mix results in super soft meatballs. Haven’t tried it in meatloaf but was wondering how the texture would be. I sprinkle the seeds of flaxseed and chia on salads all the time and just put some of the flaxseed meal in my oatmeal this morning (probably a tablespoon) along with my ever present blueberries (they go in my salads too).

I have a sweet tooth and always need something fruity in the morning which is why I always have craisens, raisins and frozen fruit on hand.

You know you can always put vanilla ice cream on top of sautéed fruit....or yogurt. A healthy indulgence and then sprinkle some flaxseed meal on top of the yogurt or ice cream.
