Banana Bugs

I am SOO very lucky to have a child who will basically try ANY food you give to him. He has always had the best of appetites. I have never had to make a separate meal for him other than what I make for my husband and I. If we have a big ol Spinach salad for dinner, he does too. And he LOVES IT! In fact, he requests salads when we go out to restaurants. He has expensive taste buds that's for sure.  For example, he wont eat regular string cheese or cheddar, he only wants Aged Gouda and Manchego cheese. He wont eat hot dogs or grilled cheese, he would rather have roasted broccoli and green beans. He does love Hamburgers and Pizza, however  Who doesn't right? He's so my son! 

Basically, I don't have to make his food funny for him to eat it, I just like to. He enjoys it and I have even more fun creating it. The more fun in our lives the better! So today I made Banana bugs. Who doesn't like Bananas or Peanut Butter? Who doesn't like Coconut or Pretzels? Raisins I can see, so use mini chocolate chips and make them a treat. Be creative and have some fun. Food is awesome!

1 Banana

1 TBS Peanut Butter
1 Tsp unsweetened Coconut flakes
8 Pretzel sticks
4 Raisins

Apples and Peanut butter are already one of my favorite things in the UNIVERSE! Adding coconut, chocolate chips, walnuts and raisins make it a dream come true! 

Best recipe EVER! 

Another amazing version is adding Almond Butter and dried fruit! HELLO! You really can't go wrong. A sweet healthy treat to feel guiltless about!

My son thanked me a million times when I made these today and he had the biggest smile on his face.
