Would you like to know about 3 desserts you can enjoy without having to worry about putting on weight?

Do you have a sweet tooth and can’t live a day without desserts and yet you want to stay fit? Then you’ll be pleased to hear about sweet treats, which won’t increase your dress size or break the scales!

Our first desert, which is an amazing substitute to unhealthy desserts is dried fruits such as Medjool dates, dried apricots, figs, prunes or dried berries. All of them are an incredible  source of various vitamins, antioxidants and essential minerals such as magnesium, calcium, copper, iron and potassium. They will benefit not only your stomach, as they will be effortlessly digested, but also help to nourish your skin and give it a brighter and fresher look. Needless to say that you can add them to your breakfast or smoothies too. Additionally, a mix of dried fruits and nuts will keep you full and happy, as they are infused with the sunlight of the Mediterranean climate. They will boost your energy and help prevent heart diseases. Try these amazing dried fruits with an Earl Grey or Lapsang Souchong tea.

The second healthy suggestion on our list is, of course, Dark chocolate – a well-known mood-enhancing food. Dark chocolate is packed with vital minerals such as Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Copper and Manganese. It benefits your brain, improves your heart health and boosts your mood. It contains an incredible amount of antioxidants, which neutralize free radicals and help protect your body from many diseases. However, please choose a brand with a high percentage of a cocoa and opt for a high quality artisan bar. Treat yourself, it’s an investment in your health.

Finally to finish off this amazing list of goodies - what about a dairy free ice cream at the weekend? There are so many options to try; however, our favorite is made from cashew. A non-dairy cashew ice-cream is very creamy and rich in minerals, vitamins and antioxidants. The main benefits of this divine dessert are no bloating or extra fat on your bump. If you have time for creativity - why not try a delicious Avocado chocolate mousse. Peel and pit an avocado, add a tablespoon of raw cacao powder, 2 pitted Medjool date, 80 ml of Almond milk, turmeric, cinnamon and poppy Seeds and put all ingredients into a blender. Put the mousse into small glasses and decorate with fresh berries. Enjoy!
