Bored with fruit. Ideas please!

OK, so it's winter here in Oz and all the fruits are DULL. I am a summer fruit person.

All I've eaten for weeks are apples, with the odd orange and maybe a pear thrown in. I can't afford to spend money on unseasonal fruits (and they taste yuk anyway when they are never bloody ripe) and I don't like bananas.

What can I do to make my fruit more interesting? Thanks :-)

Have you tried putting some peanut butter on your apples?

You can eat dried fruit instead? dried apricots are lovely... or you can also add cinamon to apples and pear...Hope it helps....

nuts, 100 calorie snack packs,carrot or celery sticks with PB or light dressing to dip, and yogurt are my go to snacks when Im not in the mood for fruit

So you're in Australia? How nice.

Anyway, I like pitted dates. They are available all year. They taste almost like chocolate to me.

How about baking the apples with a little cinnamon and brown sugar. Have you ever tried frozen fruit? I use frozen mango chunks (defrosted and pureed) in my Greek yogurt.

Have you tried adding all natural peanut butter on top of your apples? Or buy a juicer and juice them?

You can slice your apples, microwave them for 30-60 seconds, and then sprinkle them with a cinnamon and splenda mixture. It reminds me of apple pie... without the extra calories! You can also dip apples in vanilla yogurt for a little different taste.

Got this idea from undressedskeleton on Tumblr.

Sprinkle some sugar free jello over your fruit! Fresh or frozen would work. Haven't tried it myself, but did buy a box of SF lime jello for the purpose.
