Don't Throw Away Those Over-ripe Bananas!

How many times have you gone into your local supermarket and spotted those beautifully ripe bananas sitting there calling your name to take them home? They look good but you know that beauty is fading, it is not lasting because as soon as you get them home within a day or so that beauty will fade into brown, or black.

I love bananas but would always end up throwing them away, thinking they were not good to eat after they started browning, and then my husband started making smoothies. Bananas are a great source of natural Potassium. I’ve known a few friends to eat bananas for their health.

Anyway, here is my husband’s smoothie recipe.

Ingredients:

Strawberries
Bananas
Pineapple Juice

Since he’s been making Banana Strawberry Smoothies he has gotten some great bargains on those browning Bananas nobody wants for as low as 10-cents a pound at the market.

Look for sales on Strawberries and Bananas at local fruit stands, or your supermarket, buy them, take off the parts you don’t eat, wash and freeze until you are ready to make your smoothie.
