    Healthy Chocolate Covered Bananas

    How to make healthy, low carb, chocolate covered bananas. This recipe is super SIMPLE and PACKED with protein! The Diet Chef #ChocolateCoveredBananas #WeightWatchers

    I'm certain there are few things in this world that go together better than bananas and chocolate. Of course, if you added peanut butter to this mix it's game over.

    I love having these waiting for me at home after a workout, or hot summer days. It's just nice to switch things up from boring old protein shakes from time to time, and the chocolate covered bananas are the perfect solution.

    My 3 favorite things about these:

    1. Inevitably getting chocolate on my fingers (and of course licking it off)

    2. The protein content

    3. No guilt factor

    If you try these chocolate bananas, don't forget to snap a pic and tag it #thedietchef
