10 Fresh Kiwi Recipes to Perk Up Your Meal (2024)

Strawberry-Beef Summer Salad

Yes, you'll have to be a little patient while the steak is marinating, but trust us, it's worth the extra time. Since the steak can marinate for up to 24 hours, you can prep it the night before to speed this kiwi recipe for dinner the next day. Serve with fresh arugula, berries, kiwi, and orange slices to make a healthy and super-delish dinner salad.

Ginger-Acai Bowls with Almond-Pepita Clusters

The beauty of this ultra-fresh breakfast bowl almost has us stunned. We used blended berries to make the base of this gorgeous smoothie bowl, but you can experiment with adding in other fruits, like kiwi, banana, and mango. To make this bowl truly picture-ready, arrange rows of sliced kiwi, mango, chia seeds, blueberries, and homemade granola on top of the smoothie mixture before dipping your spoon in for a taste.

Tropical Fruit Breakfast Parfaits

This kiwi recipe is one you'll look forward to waking to. Yogurt (we like lime or coconut flavor here) is layered with crunchy homemade granola and tropical fruit. Add shredded coconut and/or macadamia nuts for extra crunch and tropical sensations.

Test Kitchen Tip: When shopping for kiwi, select ones that yield to gentle pressure. If the fruit is not quite ripe, let it stand at room temperature for a day or two.

Quick Fruit Salsa

We've never thought to add a kiwi recipe to our taco night spread before, but now that we've tasted it, we're never going back. This 10-minute side dish is as easy as chopping and stirring, and as tasty as any salsa we've tried. A fruit and veggie trio of kiwi, cucumber, and avocado make this homemade salsa great for scooping up with your favorite tortilla chips.

Rainbow Pops

No need to buy frozen ice pops when you can make them at home. Every bright-colored layer of this kiwi recipe is made with pure fruit, allowing the natural sweetness shine. It's the perfect no-sugar-added treat for the kids.

Spring Green Smoothies

Say hello to spring! Sipping on this kiwi smoothie while looking out over your budding spring flowers is the best way to start your day as the seasons change. Fresh spinach gives this veggie smoothie its velvety texture (not to mention a hearty dose of iron) and grape juice, kiwi, and green grapes make it classically sweet and fruity.

Sharp and Sweet Green Salad

You'll have no trouble eating your greens for the day with this kiwi salad around. Combine soft butterhead lettuce with crispy cucumber sticks and sweet kiwi slices to make this salad a true green goddess. You can also give this salad some heat by making a homemade lime-pepper dressing with jalapeño peppers. Drizzle it on just before digging in.

Strawberry-Kiwi Jam

Get ready for a delicious upgrade your morning toast. Strawberries and kiwi make an unbeatable pair in this homemade jam recipe. Finely chopped crystallized ginger enhances the flavor of the preserves while adding a nice spicy kick.

Kiwi Peach Cobbler

Give your fruit cobbler a fresh twist by making this kiwi recipe for dessert. The addition of cinnamon and cloves gives warm flavor to this unlikely, yet super delicious fruit combo. Enjoy with a big scoop of ice cream.

Puffed Oven-Baked Pancakes

After one bite of these puffed oven pancakes, we may never go back to using our griddle to cook the most important meal of the day. Each one of these puffy pancakes bakes in a custard cup, so they're ideal for loading up with fresh kiwi, strawberries, and peaches once they come out of the oven. Top with a spoonful of orange marmalade for a citrus surprise.
