Gulf Weekly Cool and tasty treats with seasonal fruits

Summer is officially here, which means that avocados are at the peak of their season, readily available and optimally delicious.

Now is the perfect time to incorporate this nutritious and delicious fruit into just about any dish. Its mild, nutty flavour and creamy texture give it a wide range of culinary possibilities.

Hot sunny days call for cool refreshing bites. For a sweet treat, it does not get more satisfying than a delightful frozen yogurt parfait or dollop of ice cream.

Numerous outlets have now opened around the kingdom offering fruity additions to their frozen yoghurt and ice cream mixes.

Basically frozen yogurt is made with milk and yogurt cultures, while ice cream is often made with heavy cream, which accounts for its fattiness. Both desserts have plenty of calcium.

Health experts suggest there’s nothing wrong with enjoying any kind of frozen dessert as part of a generally well-balanced diet, so pick the option you’re actually craving and enjoy every bite.

Honour your hunger and if you’re craving a scoop or two of full fat ice cream, go for it. If you’d rather a lighter treat with a few sweet toppings, go for that, instead. The healthiest option is the one that you’ll enjoy the most in moderation, so grab that spoon.
