Frozen chocolate covered bananas

Bananas are a fantastic sources of potassium, an essential mineral for maintaining normal blood pressure and heart function, they’re also great for improving eye sight (like carrots), and they help built better bones and promote kidney health. Getting the kids to get excited about this fruit (or most any fruit really….), is no easy task however. We’re not sure if they were inspired by “Arrested Development” or not, but Diana’s Bananas has come-out with a stellar line-up of products that includes frozen bananas covered in milk or dark chocolate (they’ve even got options with nuts!), and the little ones are loving them.

Sure, it would be better if the kids wanted to eat the bananas sans the chocolate, but this is one of the best ways for them to get the benefits of the fruit, avoid the processed sweets they normally crave, and get them to eat their veggies before dessert – that’s right, these frozen bananas are so good they won’t realize they’re eating something that’s actually good for them, so make them earn that frozen banana!
