large carton organic fat free creamy yogurt
frozen forest fruits
jelly
tinned fruit of all types
gelatin
evaporated milk
dried spices such as cinnamon, ginger
usual baking stuff such as oil, flour, eggs etc
some almost black bananas
apples

    Fruit salad and pour yogurt or evap milk over it or you could make the jelly with the tin of evaporated milk - tastes almost like a mousse.

    Whisk the jelly with the evaporated milk and let it set.

    Banana cake - it's not fattening if it has fruit in it!! I saw a recipe if you could call it that which was Strawberries with balsamic vinegar - not tried it but could be nice.
