30 Days of Snacks: Day 4 Frozen Chocolate Banana
Frozen Chocolate Bananas
1 Medium Banana
1/3 Dark Chocolate bar of choice {33 g}
Cut banana in quarters, put a toothpick or skewer stick in them, put in a ziploc baggie and freeze overnight. Melt dark chocolate with a splash of coconut oil or olive oil and microwave until melted {or melt on a double boiler}. dip frozen bananas in the chocolate. We used a dark chocolate with cranberries and oranges so there was an crunchier texture – use whatever DARK chocolate you like so you get the health benefits of dark chocolate {not Milk Chocolate}.
This was a really fun family affair and I encourage you all to get the kids involved. They will be much more inclined to try something they helped make and they have a lot of fun doing it! Now you tell me this kiddo isn’t super excited about our creation! Even my dear friend, Molly, who isn’t a dark chocolate fan, enjoyed it! This is one you’ll want to share since it’s a higher calorie snack.

Top each round with 1 tsp of pizza sauce and a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese. Bake until cheese is melted {about 4-5 minutes}. I don’t eat cheese, so my husband the cheese lover was the taster – he tried these hot and cold and loved them!

What’s for dinner? Rosemary-Balsamic Chicken
Today’s “What’s for Dinner?” is Rosemary-Balsamic Chicken, Cherry-Spinach-Arugula Salad & Sweet Potato Chips.
We used the left over Rosemary-Balsamic Marinade from the peaches earlier this week and marinaded the chicken all day. We threw another Spinach-Arugula salad together with 1 1/2 cups of salad mix, 1/2 a tomato, 1/4 cucumber and 1/4 cup of dried cherries, then seasoned with a splash of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon.
I attempted to make some sweet potato chips, but they need some work. I’ll have to try these again and post a recipe when I get it perfected! đŸ™‚
Enjoy!
