Chocolate-Banana “Ice Cream”

Freeze a banana, then combine with 2 tbsp cocoa powder and blend until smooth and creamy. Dairy-free, 110 calories. But most importantly: frigging delicious, because seriously dudes, bananas and chocolate were meant to be together <3 p="">

I use a frozen banana with a spoonful of peanut butter & half a glass of milk for a morning smoothie. This sounds delicious. I need to pick myself up some more bananas…

Cucumber Sandwich

This is Paleo diet approved I believe

Just scoop out the seeds, fill with laughing cow cheese and your favorite deli cuts and whatever condiments you like. The cucumber just acts like your bread.
