Tip: Rinsing, then drying your chickpeas really well can help them become crispy. Also, while peeling the skins is a tedious task, doing so can also help them crisp up more in the oven.
Banana Bites
These banana bites are essentially little almond butter banana sandwiches dipped in chocolate. The bananas achieve a lovely, creamy texture from being frozen, and the chocolate and almond butter bring sweet, bitter and salty notes all at once! Try them as a snack or a healthy dessert.

Tip: If you are looking for an even simpler snack, just take slices of banana, flash freeze them, then dip them in melted chocolate chips, and freeze again until solid.
Frozen Yogurt Covered Blueberries
Whether you need to curb your sweet tooth or have breakfast on the go, frozen yogurt covered blueberries will do the trick. These can technically be made with only two ingredients: fresh blueberries and Greek yogurt. Just dip your blueberries into the yogurt and let them freeze!

Tip: You can do this with different Greek yogurt flavors and fruits to shake things up; for example, strawberries dipped in honey Greek yogurt.
