Yeah, it's unconventional (and maybe even a bit nervy) to put a banana split recipe in here that doesn't call for ice cream. But it's REALLY good. And fun!!!

Ingredients

1 small banana

3 tablespoons Cool Whip Free, frozen

2 tablespoons sugar-free strawberry preserves

1 teaspoon semi-sweet mini chocolate chips

Directions

Slice banana in half, first lengthwise and then widthwise. Place banana pieces in a bowl.

In a separate dish, mix strawberry preserves with 1 tablespoon of hot water to create a strawberry syrup. Pour strawberry syrup over bananas.

Top with Cool Whip Free and then sprinkle chocolate chips on top. Enjoy!
