Nutty Nanas is a nutritious snack that’s easy to fix anytime. Peanut butter is a great source of protein, which gives you energy and helps your body to stay healthy and strong.

Bananas are a great snack too! They even come in their own packaging. They contain potassium, which helps your muscles work properly, including your heart. Potassium also helps regulate water flow to the body’s cells.

Not only is it good for you, but Nutty Nanas tastes great too! Try it as an afternoon snack. It’s perfect for giving you that extra surge of energy that you need after a long, hard day at school, or anytime!
