Three ways to rustle up a tasty cool treat on a budget when the sun is shining
THERE is nothing better than a tasty and cool treat when the sun is shining. Raid your cupboard and you can rustle up one of these easy treats on a budget. Here is what to try . . . CRUNCHY YOGHURT BITES: This recipe from Tesco real food is a great one to do with kids. You'll need an empty ice-cube tray, then sprinkle cereal to cover the base. You can use granola, crunchy cornflakes or anything in your cupboard. Next, spoon in Greek-style yoghurt to cover the cereal and top each cube with a few pieces of chopped fruit. Try raspberries, blueberries or mango. Freeze for one or two hours until solid before enjoying. CHOCOLATE BARK: If you love the combination of peanut butter and chocolate, this recipe from Sainsbury's is for you, and costs just 54p a serving. Melt 370g of chocolate in a bowl over a pan of water, then pour over a tray lined with baking paper. Soften 125g of peanut butter for 30 seconds or so in the microwave, then spoon it over the melted chocolate. You can use a fork or toothpick to create a swirling patter between the two. If you fancy a bit of texture, sprinkle a handful of salted popcorn over the mixture, before popping in the fridge for an hour to set. FROZEN DATE: This tasty Tesco Real Food recipe is better for you than most sweet treats — and it is just 12p a serving depending on the cost of the dates. Cut a slit in each date and remove the stones if they have not been pitted, fill with a little almond butter and place on a tray lined with baking paper. Melt a small amount of dark chocolate in the microwave or over a pan of hot water before drizzling over the stuffed dates. Sprinkle with a pinch of seat salt. I'm a Tunnocks fanatic and there were no lollies left in the shop so I stuck a teacake in the freezer and here is what happened Then eat as they are or pop into the freezer and eat from frozen for a superb cooldown.

Ingredients Crust 3/4cup - oats — rolled 2/3cup - desiccated coconut 1/2cup - dates — Medjool, pitted 1/4cup - macadamia nuts 2Tbs - water Filling 1 1/2cup - bananas — chopped 1/2 - avocado — large 2Tbs - sugar free peanut butter — extra 2Tbs - coconut oil — melted 1Tbs - cocoa powder Method For the crust, place everything in a food processor and blend until smooth. Grease an 18cm loose-bottom cake tin with some cooking spray. Press the mixture into the tin to form an even layer. For the filling, place everything in a food processor and blend until smooth. Spread this over the crust and smooth it out. Add a tablespoon or two of peanut butter on top of the cheesecake and ripple it in using the tip of a small knife. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight before serving in slices. Tip: You can garnish the cheesecake with salted peanuts, macadamias or edible flowers, if you prefer.
