The trick to Halloween is making nutritious food fun – funtritious!  It is easy for nutritious food to get booted among the piles of candy and sweets during all the Halloween craze, but with these funtritious treats it is easy to not let it happen to you and your family.

I’m not sure who was the creative mastermind who originally came up with these super cute BOOnanas that have invaded pinterest, but I applaud them!  These are healthy, fun and super easy to make. We made them for a Halloween snack, but you can also make it for a side at dinner or a dessert. Bananas are a good source of fiber, vitamin C, potassium, manganese, and an excellent source of vitamin B6.

This is the perfect snack to get your kids in the kitchen with you to make some fun memories.  It was easy enough for my 2 year old to do.  Remember to keep it fun and let your kids place the chocolate chips on the bananas to make fun faces.  I did have to limit the amount of chocolate chips available to my chocolate loving son, so that might be a good idea for you too.

Go grab some bananas and a small bag of chocolate chips to make some funtritious BOOnanas.  And remember to have a spooky fun Halloween!
