Bananas are on my grocery list every week. They are my go to fruit. No matter what season it is, I can always count on getting good quality bananas at my local grocery store. The grocery store that I regularly shop at carries Chiquita Bananas; therefore, I am buying and eating them all the time. I tend to buy some yellow bananas so I can eat them right away and/or use them for baking and then I always grab a few green bananas. Once my yellow bananas are gone, the green bananas I purchased are usually turning yellow and ready to eat. I was thrilled when I was contacted by Chiquita Banana to become a Chiquita Mom. Their website offers great tips for moms as well as recipes! I make banana bread on a regular basis so I am excited to give the Chiquita sugar free banana bread recipe a try. I always let my bananas get pretty brown before I bake with them. I find my bread has the best flavor when I use very ripe or frozen bananas.
Every morning my son and I start our day with a banana. My toddler thinks it is fun to get to hold a banana with the peels dangling over his hand. They are a great source of potassium, vitamin B6, dietary fiber, vitamin C, and more! Bananas are a convenient snack you can feel good about feeding your kids as well as yourself! If your child won’t eat a banana plain, there are a lot of great banana recipes listed on the Chiquita Bananas website.
