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
