Monkey Food is Good for You

When my husband saw all these bananas on the counter he asked, “When’s the monkey arriving?” Ha, ha, ha. There was a really good sale so I couldn’t resist. There’s so many ways to use bananas. I break mine into six pieces, freeze them in FoodSaver bags, and take out however many I want for my fruit and protein smoothies.

You can drizzle dark chocolate on them and put in the freezer. Sometimes I’ll toss small chunks of banana into honey and roll them in chopped, salted peanuts and leave them in the freezer to firm up. Yum! Don’t forget about banana bread. Love it! Toss some dark chocolate chips into the batter and you’ll have a decadent chocolate chip banana bread that’s more like the best cake ever. Bananas are awesome!
