Almond and pear

Best for: heart health

Compared with peanut butter, almond butter contains more of the bone-building minerals calcium, magnesium and phosphorus. It also has more monounsaturated fat, "which improves blood cholesterol levels", says Lewin. Pears add fibre, again shown to help manage cholesterol levels.

Take: two slices of whole grain bread

Stack with: 1 tablespoon of crumbled goat’s cheese; 2 thin pear slices; 1 tablespoon of almond butter
