Cool Banana Bites!

Bananas are bananariffic! (sorry Paige) One day we had an extra banana at home, I cut it up, put peanut butter, and Nutella on it, then froze it. Those are good! But I liked the banana chunk itself, so I cut up another banana and froze it! Here's the two recipes:

PB&Choco Banana Bites:
+ Banana
+ Peanut Butter
+ Nutella (you don't need name brand, I used Jif)
 
Slice up a banana, mix your PB and Nutella together, then spread onto your banana slices. Now put into a container, and freeze! After they are frozen enjoy!

Plain Banana Bites:
+ Banana

Slice the banana. Put into a container, I put them in a small container, but after they covered the whole bottom, I placed parchment paper in there, then did another layer, repeat as necessary. Freeze! Then enjoy!

Hope you like the recipes!

My Favorite Smoothie Recipe

Hey blogging family! It's Grace, and I've recently been getting into making smoothies. I make them during the day, freeze them, and slurp 'em down in the morning! My recent smoothie I have been making, I call the Strawberry Lemonade Smoothie. Here's how to make it!

Strawberry Lemonade Smoothie:
+ Any brand of strawberry yogurt
+ Lemonade
+ Frozen strawberries
+ A little bit of sugar (because the frozen strawberries are tart)
+ Three big leaves of spinach (I know, ew! But you can't taste it... So why not, Right?)

Now blend until your heart's content! Then freeze, thaw, and enjoy! A perfect treat for the summer that's on it's way!

Enjoy the recipe and I hope you'll try it out!

Happy Mothers Day!

Hello! Happy Mothers day to all the mothers out there, whether you're a mom to plants, animals, or crazy tiny humans! Did you make your mom anything? No? Did you call her, or text her, or in any way communicate with her? No? Why not? Well, I did! I made my mother 3 things! 1. Steak + Pepper kabobs. 2. A decorated jar. 3. A candle thing, that I added eyes on it because it looked like a face. She loved it!
