o bananas!

So I went to the store the other day and got way too many bananas to know what to do with. I already made banana bread and had 5-6 bananas left. ERR. I do NOT eat over ripe bananas so whats a girl to do? I searched the internet for some ideas and came up with banana icecream. Im sure some of you first think eww gross, but keep an open mind. It was so darn good and easy and fast to make. This is what I did....
Pealed 5-6 bananas and cut them into 1-2 inch pieces and placed them in my blender. Then set it on puree for 5 minutes. About halfway through, I added a tablespoon of cocoa poweder per banana and 2 tablespoons of splenda. Then finished mixing. At the very end I added one cup of peanuts. Mixed for another minute and then poured it into a pyrex container and put in the freezer. In no time you have a yummy frozen treat that tastes like you really shouldnt be eatting it. But with bananas being so good for you and naturally sweet and only about 70-90 cals per one, you cant go wrong. I put mine in the freezer, forgot about it, went to work and then came home so had to use a fork to eat it. Still.... so good! It will definitly be a keeper in my healthy recipe book and something that I know no one else will eat in the household except Country Biscuit will try to sneak some but no worries... its no treat for a cat.
