Liz's Fit Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

I wanted to share something a little less deep and personal today, but oh so tasty! These muffins are a hit in my house by the calorie counter and the non calorie counter. I've modified this recipe a few times to shave off a few more calories and each motification has actually produced a muffin that tastes better than the last. Enjoy these as a fun afternoon snack or a dessert!
