This is one of those recipes that quietly does a lot of heavy lifting during the week. Quick to make, affordable, and built from pantry staples, but still chocolatey enough to feel like a treat.

They’re nut-free, oil-free, no-bake, and built around simple, affordable ingredients. A whole banana for sweetness, prunes for natural binding, carrot for texture, and protein powder to keep you full. No waste, no fancy extras, just smart, functional food that still tastes like a treat.

This is weekday fuel at Elliot’s Table, food that gets you through the week, saves you money, and still feels good to eat.
