Anyways I'm a huge fan of bananas! They are an excellent source of potassium to help heal sore muscles. And they are super cheap! Also bananas freeze well so whenever ours get too ripe I peel them and place them in a ziploc. I use our frozen bananas for smoothies, thaw for banana bread or our favorite "Banana Swirl!"
A kid show "Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood" has a short clip on how to make banana swirl so we tried it and loved it! It is super easy and a healthy alternative to ice cream. It still has the texture of ice cream but not the calories!
Ingredients:
2 peeled frozen bananas
1/4 cup milk
Optional:
1 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp peanut butter
Cinnamon
Toppings
1. Place all ingredients in a blender. Wait about 5-10 mins to allow bananas to thaw a little bit
2. Blend!! You may have to help mix it or add more milk to get it moving. Blend until all mixed and smooth.
3. Eat!
We topped ours today with chocolate chip morsels and peanuts! It was delicious!!
Happy summer!
