Heart-healthy food tip: Almond bread is a very low fat biscuit with the heart-friendly goodness of nuts.
Pistachios are lower in fat than most other nuts, and their green-coloured skin signals the presence of helpful phytochemicals. With the added goodness of berries, this dessert is perfect for an occasional treat.
