here are some awesome ideas

Berry Breakfast Trifle

• 2 cups low-fat natural yoghurt
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 cups breakfast cereal (Muesli or oats based)
• 1 punnet raspberries or strawberries
• 1 punnet blueberries

Yoghurt and honey in a bowl and mix well. Divide half the yoghurt evenly between 4 small bowls or tall glasses.  Top with half of the cereal and then half of the berries.   Repeat layers with remaining ingredients.

Double Choc Balls

• 8 Weetabix, crushed
• 1 cup sultanas
• ½ cup cocoa
• 1 x 395g can sweetened condensed milk
• ½ cup chocolate sprinkles

Place ingredients, except chocolate sprinkles in a large bowl.  Mix well.  Form mixture into 30 balls and toss in chocolate sprinkles until covered.

Frozen Fruit Pops

• 16 lolly sticks
• 2 large just ripe bananas
• 1 punnet strawberries, hulled
• ¼ pineapple, peeled
• juice of 1 orange

Peel all fruit and cut into 3cm sized pieces.  Soak banana in orange juice for 2 minutes.  Thread fruit onto sticks.  Place in a container and freeze for 4 hours, or until ready to serve.  Serve frozen.  These fruit pops can be frozen for up to three months.
