Gone Paleo Crazy!

Well, to break my "blog-writing-freeze" -  I am going to jump right into it! Indeed, I have gone a little Paleo crazy. These past few months have been difficult as I haven't been feeling too great. I've finally realized that I was making myself sick with the overload of dairy, gluten, and over-processed sugar I've been consuming in the recent years. With some support from my healthy hubby, I have bought myself the "Practical Paleo" addition a few weeks back and trying my best to stick with a healthy approach of eating and living.
I have been trying many of my own recipes and would love to share a recipe of my favorite guilt-free frozen treat : the chocolate covered banana popsicle!

Chocolate Coconut Covered Bananas - Chilled/ Frozen Treats!
  • 4 bananas
  • 2 organic dark chocolate gluten-free bars(best 70% or higher)
  • 1/2 -3/4  cup coconut milk
  • Unsweetened organic coconut flakes
  • 8 popsicle sticks
Peel bananas and cut into halves (will be 8 total pieces).
Prepare dish with wax cookie sheet placed on top.
In a sauce pan, melt chocolate – mixing and combining with coconut milk (for about 1-2 min).
Insert popsicle sticks into banana pieces and dip bananas into chocolate, carefully using a spoon or spatula to cover all of the banana.
Carefully place chocolate covered banana onto wax sheet and sprinkle with coconut flakes.
Place bananas into freezer for an hour and serve (will be fresh and slightly chilled).
To freeze for a longer time period, move the banana popsicles into a plastic/glass container after they have cooled off and can easily be moved from the wax paper.
Enjoy!
