Did you eat start your day with a banana?
August 27th has been named National Banana Lover’s Day! I don’ know who comes up with these foodie holidays, but I am all about this one.
They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away, but I’m thinking maybe the saying should be about bananas. Bananas are one of the healthiest natural food choices in the world available in supermarkets because they contain high amounts of fiber, potassium, vitamin C and manganese. Plus the once exotic fruit keeps various health conditions under control from bone health and lower blood pressure to a healthy digestive track. A must have in your diet!
You can slice them over cereal, blend them in a smoothie or eat them just the way they are, but for National Banana Lover’s Day we wanted to share the best of the best in banana snacks:
Peanut Butter-Banana Pops from Cheeky Kitchen
Cashew Butter Banana Bites from Live. Learn. Love. Eat.
No Bake Banana Pudding from Penelope Oasis
Frozen Banana Nibblers from Lemon and Lime Event
Almond Coconut Crusted Chocolate Bananas from Fit Sugar
By the way, the best tool for a banana lover is this banana slicer. Yes, I own it. And even if it saves me 3 seconds of time it is worth the price for perfect slices and to be able to say “I own a banana slicer.” Naner, naner boo boo.
