    Nutella banana wontons recipe

    If you are anything like me, you have to have something sweet at the end of the day. It doesn't take much to satisfy my sweet tooth, but it always has to be a bite of heaven to end the evening.

    I made these last night, and let me tell you...a bite of heaven doesn't even describe the awesomeness. nom. One of these suckers was plenty to make me happy, but I had two because I made two and I couldn't allow the lonely little wonton to sit there uneaten, so I ate it.

    Warning - Only make as many as you want to eat. Otherwise, if you make more...you will eat more. You have been warned.

    1 wonton wrapper - 20 calories
    1 teaspoon Nutella - 33 calories
    1 slice banana - 7 calories (I am guessing, but it can't be more lol)

    1 Nutella/Banana Wonton - 60 calories & a smile

    You will need:

    Wonton Wrappers
    Nutella
    Sliced Bananas
    1 Egg, beaten
    PAM Spray

    Directions:

    * Place Wonton wrapper on a flat surface
    * Add one teaspoon of heaven, I mean Nutella in the middle
    * Lick spoon (don't act like you are not going to lick the spoon
    * Place the banana slice on top
    * Dip finger in beaten eggs and glaze the edges of the wonton
    * bring all for corners to the middle and press all sides to make it look like...I don't know, make it look like something
    * Spray the bottom of a cookie sheet and place wontons on sheet
    * Spray the top of the wontons just a little so that they crisp up when they cook
    * Place in a 350 degree oven for about 15 minutes or until the wonton is brown and crispy looking
    * Remove Wontons and cry a little out of happiness



    Enjoy!

    i am drooling while reading this!! :bigsmile: Def making these asap!! Thank you!

    Whey Protein. When I started my weight loss, I thought "Oh, I could never do THAT!" It just sounded so hard core body builder has to taste like crap stuff. (Think 'eating her curds and whey' yuck!) Now, I think my whey protein shakes are the best part of my workout!
    I just started putting a tablespoon of sliced black olives in my pam fried egg whites and I really enjoy the extra taste.
  • i wanna try the cauli crust. .. my ex mil years ago made me some mashed cauliflower and it was ok.. she was on south beach and that was a recipe for it.

    Recently, i have also tried tofu noodles, soy chocolate milk and soy tofu hummus. 'normal' to some people, but to me all new! :)

    oh and i am making spaghetti squash next week

    This was a new one for me but maybe not for all.

    Spinach and strawberry salad.

    My cousin made it. Just baby spinach and sliced strawberries. My dad added dried bacon bits which I guess aren't terrible but I avoid it. And then just spritz a balsamic vinaigrette on it and you've got a delicious break from the usual salad that is packed with nutrients.

    I did something similar, but spinach, strawberries, some sliced almonds, and a low-cal poppyseed dressing. SOooooo good!

    One of my favorites that sounds a bit weird but is AWESOME:

    Steam your favorite veggies until they are al dente.
    In the meantime make some brown rice.
    Place steamed veggies in a frying pan with some soyrizo or other vegetarian chorizo (I think Trader Joes makes a version of it).
    Cook veggies and soyrizo until hot.

    Layer: Brown rice, soyrizo/veggies, and cottage cheese (the cottage cheese makes it!)
    YUM!

    I thought it would be weird to mix warm (microwaved from frozen) blueberries with cottage cheese but it's delicious! My favorite healthy "dessert" now :)

    Also, my PB&J Protein Paste... sounds kind of odd but peanut butter, jelly, and protein powder all mixed up together in a paste/spread is delicious.

    Oh and eating quinoa in place of oatmeal... I cook the quinoa like normal, then mix it up with cinnamon, bananas or apples, peanut butter, and some greek yogurt.
