I just love Australian summer fruit. Among my favourite fruits are peaches and strawberries, bursting with their fresh, juicy flavours. For a different taste sensation try roasting them to release those lovely juices and serve with a dollop of Greek yoghurt. Using maple syrup as the sweetener keeps the dish low GI. Leftovers keep well in the fridge and are great served with muesli or other cereals for breakfast
