Who knew my next post after such a serious hard and joyous post would be about them, but it is...trying to get back in the swing of things after so much and still so much going on..so we are going light on the post for today.
I started freezing bananas not that long ago. Best thing ever! The grocery around here will have them every once in awhile crammed into these bags for $1.25! It's because they are starting to turn brown and most do not want them. I love them. So for $5 I filled up 4 gallon bags! Cheap y'all!
So far we only use them for smoothies, but they are a great filler and give a very sweet taste which helps stretch my more expensive fruit. Plus I have a child that only eats apple sauce and raisins, so this is a great way for me to get different fruit in him. He thinks they are shakes.
The smoothies are really simple and I hardly measure anymore. We start with vanilla yogurt or plain, raw honey or agave nectar, cinnamon depending on the frozen fruit we use. Throw in fruit....we use bananas, peaches, strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries. Put a little milk in and blend. YUMMY! A warning on blueberries though; do not use too many and mix them with other fruit. If you use to many they make the smoothie consistency really funny and jelly and not good. ENJOY!
