FMD Phase 2 - Adding Fruit to Lunch

One of the challenges of Phase 2 of the diet is the amount and variety of food that must be consumed for lunch.  I have to eat a protein, vegetable, grain, and fruit for lunch in Phase 2.  So here are 4 ways to add fruit to lunch and it blend in, versus seeming like something extra at the end of the meal.  I find adding an apple at the end is very challenging.  So here are some ideas:

1. GRILLED - How about grilling the fruit to make it more exciting?  Grilled mango sounds really tasty and is one of the fruits that I can tolerate.
2. KABOBS - I have found that presentation of a dish, really does make a difference.  So how about adding some fruit like fresh pineapples to a kabob also filled with chicken, bell peppers, and onions.  I can eat pineapples if fresh and if a limited amount.
3. FRUIT SAUCE - I could make a barbeque like sauce with pears and dried figs.  Add some rice vinegar, onion, parsley, and red peppers for kick.  I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!
4. FRUIT SALSA - I am not a huge fan of tomato salsa. Unless it is fresh, I can't really eat it anyway.  However, I might like a fruit version occasionally.  I am thinking about combining pomegranate, blueberries, lime, onion, parsley, and cayenne to spice it up. 

This has been a public service announcement for people who find it a challenge!
