This is a new an interesting take on the peanut butter banana sammie. Instead of peanut butter I've used Wow butter... A new favorite in our house, and banana rolled up into a compact, and tasty little tortilla with little animal picks! Mmmmm, oh to be a kid again! Simple, but delish!

A little bit of lunch box heaven!

If you haven't spotted it yet, the taco is all wrapped up in a cute … [Read more...]
