Kiwi Recipes?

Kiwi is on sale at the grocery store so I'm planning on buying up a bunch since I love Kiwi. Anyone have any good recipes/ideas?

So far, I've come up with

Fruit Salad
Fruit Pizza

But I'm coming up short thinking of any more!
 
Well, for some odd reason I was totally reminded of the Kiwi Lime Pie from that episode of Friends, so I went searching for a recipe, but so far, no luck.

Maybe that's something I can figure out on my own...
