Diet Tips: Sweet treats using fruits

I love fruit as an alternative to lollies or sweets! 

Eating a diet rich in fruits as a part of a healthy diet can help with lowering the risk of heart diseases such as heart attacks and stroke. Most fruits are naturally low in fat, sodium, and calories and ALL fruits and none have cholesterol. 
Fiber in fruit can also help with digestion and proper bowel function ;) this will also help with flushing out all those unwanted toxins! As well as that benefit fruits full of fiber help you to feel fuller for longer with little calories! 

I hope you enjoy my recipes and definitely give them ago! These recipes will also be in one person serves :) ENJOY
