I’m sure this post is going against all the things that people say food bloggers should stop doing, namely creating “recipes” for something that’s hardly a recipe at all. But you know what? I don’t care. I’m not saying I’m the first person to ever enjoy this particular snack, but if it gives someone else inspiration for a delicious little pick-me-up then it’s all worth it.

Just call me an outlaw. I’m OK with it.

Seriously though, toast has been a thing for me lately and I just can’t get enough. Once you get past the “toast should have butter and jam only” mentality the options are endless. I love that I can use little bits of odds and ends that I have laying around my house. Re-reading that sentence is a little weird, but when I say that I mean I can cut the bitten-off end of a banana Wes didn’t want to finish and use it for a snack for me. Or I can finally dig out the last little bit of peanut butter. Or finish up a square of dark chocolate. And I can make it all feel super gourmet by adding a little sea salt.

You do what you have to do people.

I’m thinking of making a little series on here with snack ideas from my little kitchen, and we’ll just consider this the first of many. Because while I’m not really a snack lover, these little bites are about all I can fit in my tummy at a time these days!

Y’all enjoy!

Serves 1

Ingredients:

• 1 slice of bread (I like Ezekiel 4:9)
• 2 tablespoons peanut butter
• 1/3 of a large banana, sliced thinly
• 1/2 ounce of dark chocolate (this may yield more than you want, but I like to ere on the side of more)
• sea salt

Directions:

1. Toast your bread as desired; I like to use a traditional toaster for this, but Nate’s all about the toaster oven. Toast true to YOU, amen?
2. As soon as the bread is toasted, slather on the peanut butter and lay the banana slices on top like shingles.
3. Sprinkle the banana lightly with sea salt.
4. Using a vegetable peeler, shave the chocolate on top of the toast, being careful to not shave your fingers. Just saying.
5. Enjoy!
