Homemade Bananicles! Frozen Bananas on a Stick.

I don’t know what is is about eating something cool and refreshing on a hot summer day! One of my most favorite things to make is little something I like to call a Bananacle! It is like a Popsicle only it is a frozen banana on a Popsicle stick!

Not only is is extremely healthy for you but it taste amazing! It taste like banana ice-cream on a stick and it is the easiest thing to make! My husband has a major sweet tooth and even he like it, so you know it is good!

All you will need is, Popsicle sticks and Bananas…

Start with ripe bananas and popsicle sticks

…and a knife to cut the bananas in half!

Push the Popsicle stick in the banana on the cut side.

Place the bananas on a plat or in a freezer safe container (especially if you will be freezing longer than 1 day)

Place the Bananacles on a place and freeze over night

Take the plate and put it in the freezer over night or at least until the banana is completely frozen.

Put the bananas on a plate and freeze over night

Once the banana is frozen. Eat and enjoy!

It doesn’t get must easier than this! It is great for all ages and it everyone that like bananas love it! I

The Perfect Healthy Snack (It is Cool, Crunchy, Creamy and Sweet!)

When it comes to healthy snacks, I would have to say that this is one of my favorite snack. It is a great combination between energy, protein and deliciousness! It is easy to make and even easier to eat.

The combinations are truly endless with this snack. I personally love shopping at Trader Joe’s for all of my food and I especially love their granola section. There are so many amazing oppositions and they all go well with what I am about to share. If you don’t believe me you are just going to have to see for yourself.

You will need:

1/2 Cup Plain Greek Yogurt.
1/2 Cup Granola.
1 Scoop of Shaklee 180 Strawberry Smoothie Protein.
Fresh fruit, if desired.

First things first. Pour your yogurt into a bowl.

Measure out one scoop of your Shaklee 180 protein. Pour the protein into your bowl. Then measure out a half cup of the granola of your choice. (I used the Mixed Berries)
Next you just need to pour the granola into the bowl.
Once you have everything in the bowl, give it a good mix up and… …you are complete! Just add some Energy Tea (or Pomegranate Lemonade) and you are set for a perfect afternoon snack.

Now do you believe me? Doesn’t that look like a delicious treat? It has a little bit of everything in it. It is cool, crunchy, creamy and sweet. What more can you ask for in a healthy snack?
