Few foods celebrate summer more than a sweet, juicy Aussie mango.
Making a few healthy swaps to your menu can still bring joy to all while making the weekend festivities that little bit healthier, says Cancer Council NSW nutrition program manager Wendy Watson.
Here’s just one of the Cancer Council’s favourite mango dessert treats to get you started.

- 1/3 cup macadamias
- 1 cup Greek yoghurt

Method
