GOT BANANAS?

The circumstance I frequently find myself in, is buying too much fruit. My eyes are always bigger than what we can actually eat at my house. Good thing I know what to do!
My family's loves these 2 great recipes I make with bananas.

SMOOTHIE POPSICLES

All you need is these three ingredients.
1 Ripe Banana
10 Large Strawberries
1 c. Orange Juice














Blend all together until you have a smoothie consentancy (this makes about 3 cups)

Then pour into popsicle holders - makes 8 of these fun star shaped ones














Freeze and enjoy 1 hour later.

1-2 ripe bananas

2 cups whole wheat flour
1.5 cups sugar (I use the organic cane sugar)
