It still is a very hot summer and at the beach kids constantly need to re-energize themselves to be able to keep at their blissfully refreshing water games. Here is an easy to make, delicious, chewy/crunchy delicacy they will devour!

What you need for two cabañas:

2 slices of (whole or rye) bread, toasted

1 small ripe (not mushy) banana cut into thick slices

1 teaspoonful of pine nuts or shaved almonds*

1 tablespoon of low-fat ricotta cheese

1 teaspoon of liquid honey.

* In case of allergies, substitute the nuts with crunchy, dark chocolate chips.

What to do:

Spread the ricotta on one side of both toasted slices of bread.

On one slice put the banana and nuts on top of the ricotta, drizzle with honey and cover with the other slice.

Halve into two triangles (cabañas) for easier handling.

Your kids will go nuts for this delicious chewy/crunchy treat!

Tip: Tightly wrapped in aluminum foil the cabañas can be kept refreshingly cold in a cooler.
