A stunning pastry creation, beautiful to look at, divine to eat and
easy to put together.

Remove patty shells from package. Thaw at room temperature one half
hour.

Place rounds of pastry, overlapping slightly, lengthwise on a lightly
floured surface. Roll to a 16x4 inch rectangle. (If patties separate,
moisten with a few drops of water.) Place on an ungreased large cookie
sheet; trim edges evenly; prick well with fork; chill 30 minutes.

Reroll trimmings thinly; cut into 1/3-inch wide strips about 4 inches
long; brush with water; press ends together to make rings. Brush
rings with water, then dip in sugar; place on cookie sheet along with
rectangle of pastry. Bake pastry and pastry rings in oven at 400~ for
10 minutes. remove rings t wire rack; reserve for decoration. Bake
pastry rectangle 10 minutes longer, or until golden-brown. Remove to
wire rack; cool.

Combine milk, 1/4 cup of the cream and dessert mix in a small deep
bowl; beat, following label directions. Chill 15 minutes. Peel and
cut bananas into 1/4 inch thick slices. Sprinkle with half the lemon
juice.

Split pastry into two layers. Place bottom layer on long serving
dish or board; spread with about 2/3 of soft dessert; arrange banana
slices on long side edges; spread with remaining dessert mix. Top
with second pastry layer. Heat apricot preserves with remaining lemon
juice until melted in small saucepan; cool slightly. Brush all over
tart.

Beat remaining cream until stiff in a small bowl. Pope or spread
whipped cream over top of pastry. Arange neat rows of grapes in
cream, starting at outer edges. Cut pineapple slices in half and
place in center. Garnish with reserved pastry rings.

Advice on losing weight

If you enjoy eating, but want to become thin and improve your all round well-being, among other things you need to undertake a carefully configured healthy meal plan. Ideally, this should take in five portions of grains and vegetables on a daily basis and also contain the right blend of fat, carbs and proteins.

When deciding on a meal plan, you have to make efforts to lower your intake of salt, fat and refined carbohydrate.

When people first start dieting, they most certainly look at department store and big brand products labelled 'low-fat'. This is ordinarily wrong, as a food item could be low in fat content, but whilst still being dangerously high in calories and carbs.

Make sure that you drink enough fluids. Every now and then in the course of a busy afternoon, you think that you feel hunger but actually you may just need a cooling drink of water or juice. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are somewhat similar, but one of the two results in weight increase and the other one doesn't.

Rather than concentrating on which junk foods you really should remove from your diet, look at the good foods which you might want to add to your meal plan. If you are able to bring in the recommended portions beneficial fruit and vegetables into your weight loss program, you'll discover that you feel more satisfied and have a far decreased likelihood of giving in to those unhealthy mid-day sweets and chocolate bars.
