A Strange new fruit to me

Alright guys, so i had this strange fruit the other day and i just have to share about it. In one of my classes, this guy was talking about this fruit called a Kiwano, and i had never heard about it before, so the next class we had..he brought me one! ha-ha!! Cracked me up. Anyway... I took it home to see what this fruit was all about.

So, here is a picture of what he handed to me in class...Just Look at it!!! 

So would you not be a little confused or worried to eat this if you had never seen one before? haha.

So when i got home, i wasn't sure how to go about eating this thing, so i just cut it in half, and here is what i got when i cut it!!

I was not expecting green at all!!! This was a total surprise to me when i cut it open. i was expecting...well orange. haha. 

A little information for you: The Kiwano is often referred to as 'The Horned melon' geee...i can't imagine why?! It's very pokey by the way, it hurts if you grab it to hard. 

These melon's are very healthy for you as well, filled with vitamin A & C, as well as fiber.

Another fun fact about this fruit, The fruit appeared in an episode of Friends; "The One Where Ross Dates a Student" -haha! 

So when i opened this melon, i wasn't to sure how to eat it, and then i remembered that your suppose to eat the seeds....so....i dug the seeds out like a pumpkin...

Then i just ate the seeds!!! The Kiwano is part of the cucumber family, so it had a very mild flavor. I read that they are good for salads, or you can use the juice to make ice cubes to add color to your water or other drinks! Which is fun. It has a little citrus flavor as well. It's a very cleansing fruit, so it's defiantly a great fruit to add to a diet i would say!

Have any of you tried this fruit before? What did you think of it?! 

Have a great Sunday everyone! This is the first Sunday in awhile that i have had off work, so hopefully i can find a way to enjoy it while i can. 

Reese's cookie puffs

So, I found this recipe from Oh Bite it! Which you can find here. These Reese's cookie puffs looked so delicious so i had to try them myself. 

What you'll need:

Reese's

The Recipe calls for pastry puffs, but i used biscuits because i didn't have those

egg wash & sugar

Place your Reese's cup upside down on the a biscuit squished. All i had were the butter biscuits, which actually added a pretty tasty flavor overall to these! But you can use any kind of biscuit really, or pasty puffs. =P 

Fold the dough around the Reese's cup to cover it up, make it all nice and snug in there! 

Spread a small amount of egg wash on top of all of them and sprinkle a little bit of sugar on top to make them even more sweeter than they already are! Yum! Yum!

Place on parchment paper and set oven to 350 degrees. 

Bake for about 15 minutes, or until they get really puffy and golden brown!! You want to take them out if you see the Reese's cup melting on the parchment paper! See Lovely Alex's hand mit helping me out to get this shot? haha. 

Wa-La! Delicious chocolaty goodness at your fingertips!! Be careful though, because these little guys are hard to stop eating after you even eat half of one! They'll be sure to cause a tummy ache if you eat to much, haha. These pair perfectly with a glass of milk. Serve them warm! 

Hope you enjoyed my first food post everyone! Let me know if you try this out, I'd love to know what you thought about it!
