To this day, one of my favorite breakfasts is toast slathered with peanut butter and topped with banana slices. It's a perfect little meal or snack, and the flavors combine perfectly.
The ingredients in these cookies - the banana, peanut butter, chocolate chips, and peanuts - also combine perfectly. If you ask me, they're an excellent choice for sack lunches, because they're sweet, savory and will fill you up. And they're so easy, you could whip them up on a school night!

Quick & Easy Microwave Peanut Butter Fudge
April 10, 2013
Microwave ovens are the best friend of people who are always on the go. Did you know you can make a quick treat with just the help of this trusty machine? 🙂
Before I give you the recipe, here's a fun fact for ya. If you have been a loyal reader, you may have already heard about this from me some time back. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, did you know that chocolate had something to do with the invention of the microwave oven?
An American scientist by the name of Percy Spencer was working on what is known as the magnetron for radar sets. Allegedly, he walked by a cavity magnetron while it was at work then felt some heat and realized that a chocolate bar that he had been carrying in his pocket had melted into a sticky mess.
Peanut Butter Banana Brownie Pizza
March 27, 2013
Pizza, along with cheeseburgers, is my weakness. However bad it is, it's still pretty good! Haha but since chocolate is our superstar, we might as well roll them into one.
Sweet treats are everywhere, and they never fail to sweep people off their feet. We just can't get enough of it that even savory dishes, like pizza, have their chocolate-y counterparts.
Instead of using vegetables to make the pizza filling and topping, you go for sweet ingredients. The young ones will surely have a blast!

The number of oatmeal cookie recipes probably equals the number of all the cookie bakers on the face of the planet. Yup, I know it, you know it, we all know it. It’s not exactly a rare treat. However, it never ceases to make us yearn for more.
Oatmeal's reputation in the health department is pretty much established already. It's particularly known for being good for the heart. It’s just as good in lowering cholesterol and stabilizing sugar in the blood. It's not too shabby in helping boost the immune system, either.

Apple Peanut Butter Fudge
May 9, 2012
Peanut butter with the nutrition of apples to boot makes for a healthy snack. Peanut butter is known to contain protein and healthy fats, while apple contains vitamin C and fiber. However in this recipe, we’re only gonna be using apple juice.
Quick fun fact, a medium apple (approximately 3 in. in diameter and weighing 182 g.) contains 95 calories, while two tbsp. of peanut butter has 188 calories. All regular peanut butters have the same amount of calories, whether it be smooth or chunky. Peanut butter also provides you with manganese and niacin. And according to the American Heart Association, most of the fat found in peanut butter is of the unsaturated type. This may help lower cholesterol.
You can rest assured that this is not only delectable, but it’s healthy, as well. And of course, it has chocolate. What more could you ask for?
