  • Have fruit with your morning meal. Have at least 2 servings (a total of 1 cup/250 ml) of fruit with breakfast.
  • Use fruit as your go-to dessert. Fresh fruit (sliced or whole), fruit salad, fruit-based ice cream (see Tutti Frutti Ice Cream), and baked fruit make delectable treats.
  • Add fruit to salads. Enjoy some blueberries, sliced mango, or strawberries with your salad greens.
  • Pick fruit if hunger strikes. To make the fruit even more filling, add a little natural peanut butter, nut butter, or tahini, and top it with a sprinkle of cinnamon.
