Mango Banana Delight

by Famous French Desserts

Mango, banana and raspberry combination works wonderfully in this French mango banana delight recipe but you are more than welcome to use other fruits that you prefer.

Fromage Blanc is a French cheese that tastes like cottage cheese, with the texture of sour cream. There is also a "non-beaten" French country version that has the same texture as cottage cheese. Feel free to use the cottage cheese in your supermarket, it won't make too much of a difference.

*Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Serves 4 people


Ingredients:

1 Ripe Mango

1 Ripe Banana

1 tsp. Lemon Juice

1 tsp. Sugar (or Splenda)

1/2 Cup Raspberries

2 Cups Fromage Blanc - low fat or non fat (use cottage cheese if you can't find the authentic French fromage blanc)

1 tsp. Apricot Jelly (or 1 tsp. Sugar or Splenda)


Preparation:

• In a bowl, stir lemon juice and 1tsp. sugar. It keeps the fruits fresh and colourful!

• Slice Mango and Banana. Put in bowl with lemon juice and delicately stir, so that fruits are evenly covered.

• In a finely-meshed strainer, press raspberries with the back of a spoon. Keep pressing and rubbing until all the juice has been extracted… the strainer should be thin enough to catch the seeds.

• In a small pot, on a low flame, melt apricot jelly with raspberry juice. Stir. Taste, and if you want to add a little sugar or splenda, go ahead.

• Distribute fromage blanc, or cottage cheese, into individual bowls. Cover with fruits, and then with raspberry sauce.
Voilà!


*Hope you enjoyed this mango banana delight, now I'd like to tell you about my favorite diet program that uses a lot of the healthy lower GI foods: Isabel de los Rios' 'The Diet Solution Program'.

The Diet Solution Program favours a long term health orientated approach to fat loss, but not offering anyone a quick fix to their weight troubles. It has loads of valuable data and research to support its approach. I personally investigated the program thoroughly and my mum has been using it for a while now. I have to say she got some great results.

The nutrition plan is one of the healthiest we have seen, a strong core focus on vegetables, fruits, vitamin dense foods, lean proteins, select dairy produce and a clear approach to not expecting one diet to work for all body types. So give it a try and let me know how you’re doing.*
