Banana Dog...hold the onions!

This no-cook banana snack recipe is fun, tasty, and easy for kids to make.
The healthful benefits will be determined by your ingredient selections.
Nutritious treats like granola, peanut butter, and honey will go great with banana--
or dare to go decadent with a peanut butter, marshmallows, and chocolate chip combo.
Hmmm...I wonder which one is healthier!  



YOU’LL NEED:
Bananas – sliced and quartered lengthwise
Whole wheat hot dog bun
Butter knife or wood craft sticks for little hands.

TOPPINGS
Select toppings from the list below and/or let you children come up with some of their own!

Peanut Butter
Yogurt
Honey
Dried fruit, nuts, raisins
Granola
Chocolate syrup
Mini-Marshmallows
M & Ms
Coconut
Chocolate chips
The list goes on and on!


Slice the bananas lengthwise in quarters. Place 2 quarters in the hot dog bun.
Spread peanut butter or yogurt on the banana and top with the extras like nuts,granola chocolate chips etc.
For something really special spray on whipped cream and top with sprinkles!!!
Now take a bite and enjoy...Yummmmy!

Extra Tips: I prefer to use the natural peanut butter because I can practically pour it onto the banana!
Take this treat on the go for a nutritious breakfast when you use yogurt or peanut butter and healthy toppings.
