Nutella Banana Bread (low cal)


Another yummy treat that Susan made while we were over for lunch recently.  Our whole family LOVES banana bread and we often make it lots of different ways in order to find the perfect recipe  This one is really great because not only is it moist and delicious and not to mention chocolately but it's also happens to be low calorie and good for you.  You can find this recipe and other low calorie recipes at Slender Kitchen
