Pinterest Success Story: Chewy Strawberry Banana Granola Bars

Go ahead, admit that you pin recipes that aren't healthy. I won't judge—I do it, too. Espresso chocolate-chip ice cream? Oh, hell yes. Buffalo chicken dip baked in a pastry ring? Please and thank you.

Confession: I haven't tackled the ice cream or the dip yet. In fact, I very rarely make anything that I pin. For me, Pinterest is mostly a time-kill. And that's exactly what I need it to be. But I do find things that amount to something, like all the quotes I use for Pinspiration Thursday. Or the workouts that I sometimes incorporate into classes or client sessions. And yes, occasionally I make a recipe. Which brings me to today's Pinterest success story.

No, sorry. It's not either of the aforementioned dips.
It's actually something Chobani Champions pinned.

I know, right? Sounds healthy, and it is, but tastes like a million pounds of deliciousness. Obviously I added blueberries to mine. Recipes that easily adapt? Winners in my cookbook.

I mean...hello, berries:

Even Hannah loves them. If your kid eats eggs, these are very easy to chop up into bite-size pieces for little toddler hands to enjoy. "Coookieeeee," she says to me as I put them on her plate.

Little does she know that A) They aren't cookies, and B) I'm stealing bits of her snack for the top of my lemon Chobani yogurt:

Yogurt croutons! So, yeah...check out this pin if you haven't already. And follow me on Pinterest!
