Have you ever made an amazing mistake? Most of mine happen in the kitchen, and these banana sushi rolls are one of them! I love making my 4-year-old niece healthy snacks, but she makes huge messes. One day, I was making her some nut-butter covered banana slices. I jokingly thought to myself if only there was an edible blanket I could wrap these in so the nut-butter didn’t get all over her hands. Aha! I realized edible blanks are called tortillas.
They came out so cute and delicious, I realized I could make some really easy recipes for lunch with this method. For the next week all I did was wrap and chop sushi-style tortilla rolls. They’re so good, and so versatile!
Today I’m sharing one of my go-to healthy snacks – banana sushi rolls that are perfect for snacks, kids, and appetizers!
Why You Should Try This Unique Snack (+ The Health Benefits!)
Not all healthy snacks are created equal. I’ve made plenty of recipes in the past that left me unsatisfied. These sushi rolls are perfect for helping you feel full, happy, and in line with your goals! It’s made with seven wholesome ingredients and it takes just a few minutes to throw together. You can even modify it and add it to your list of easy recipes for lunch on the go.
The first ingredient is a whole wheat tortilla, which is a healthy alternative to white flour tortillas thanks to the whole grains. The next healthy ingredient is Super Youth collagen – full of bone-strengthening, joint healthy, and hair and nail strengthening amino acids. It’s my favorite add-in for all of my recipes. Of course, the fruit makes this treat healthy as well. Bananas, strawberries, and kiwis are all great for boosting immune function and increasing antioxidants.
