Serve with a side of Greek yogurt and fresh strawberries for extra protein which will keep you and your little ones full for longer.

Healthy Banana Split for Toddlers šš¶š» I honestly cannot tell you enough how delicious this recipe turned out! The only sweetener is one heaped teaspoon of dark chocolate and the rest is fruit and Greek yogurt. You can also swap out the chocolate for a homemade chia jam, but for me a little chocolate is good for the soul.
