Regardless of your budget, dessert can be a day to day staple, whatever money you have there is a dessert to match your finances.
As a Meals on Wheels Cook, I have to prepare ahead of time a wide range of recipes to present to the dietitian for assessment.
The dietitian reviews the menu to make sure all the dietary requirements I have to cater for are accounted for.
So you can be assured that all these desserts have been approved by her, so you know that any dessert you choose has been assessed as being healthy, nutritious, well balanced and good enough for her 5 star recommendation.
