Grilled Banana Split Recipe

I know, I know, I know. The holidays are here and temptation seems to be EVERYWHERE. Now is NOT the time for those with a sweet tooth to fall off the wagon; however, with family visiting from out of town, parties and cookie exchanges it can be rather difficult to keep the hands out of the cookie jar.

So that’s why I’ve got two great Holiday dessert ideas for you that won’t pack on the pounds.  It won’t replace pumpkin or apple pie but it sure will quiet down that sweet tooth that is so easily accommodated this time of year. 

First, make sure you’ve completed the Book Bag Circuit you received for your 12 Days of Fitness Gift and then enjoy a Grilled Banana Split. Here’s the simple ingredients you’ll need:

4 ripe bananas
2 Tbsp chocolate chips
1/2 cup non-fat, frozen vanilla yogurt
4 tsp chopped walnuts

Here are the easy-to-follow directions:

1- Preheat oven to 400 degrees
2- Place each banana on its side on a piece of foil. Cut a slit lengthwise across the top. Leave the skin attached.
3- Push 1/2 Tbsp chocolate chips into the slit of each banana.
4- Wrap the bananas with the foil, leaving the top open. Grill or bake about 15 minutes or until the chocolate melts.
5- Loosen the foil and press the bananas open a little.
6- Top each banana with 2Tbsp of the frozen yogurt and sprinkle with 1tsp walnuts.

That’s it for a nutritious and delicious treat!
