One of the biggest challenges I face with eating healthy is my INTENSE cravings for sweets. I would go crazy if I didn’t satisfy them! So, rather than ignoring it and making myself miserable, I choose options like these DELICIOUS treats instead of ones that are bad for you and full of garbage.
Frozen bananas are my go-to treat and I love pairing them with a variety of healthy toppings (or center like in this one) and options like blending them into NICEcream (see precious post for my favorite recipe!).
For this snack, I always make sure to prepare a large batch so I can grab one or two to kill that craving and not feel bad about it.
I cut three bananas length wise and put peanut butter on 1/2 of them before putting them back together to make “sandwiches”. I froze them for a while (a few hours), then cut them into 1/4-inch wide sections.
To store them, I layer the piece in a freezer container and lay wax paper between each layer to prevent them from sticking to one another.
To cut down on fat content, you can also use PB Fit Powder mixed with water in place of the peanut butter. ALWAYS use a natural peanut butter to get the most nutrition out of your snack.
Now, when I need a good choice to satisfy that craving, I have them available and will say no to the other stuff!
Stay Healthy,
Tara
