Peanut Butter-Banana Spirals

Give the classic peanut butter sandwich a twist by rolling up in a tortilla instead of serving on bread. These bite-sized spirals are good for little hearts because they provide heart-healthy monounsaturated fat from the peanut butter, potassium from the banana, and fiber from the wheat germ. 

Parents, since this recipe doesn't use the stove, little hands can participate in making the entire meal. Let the kids can mix, slice (with a plastic knife), spread, and roll.
