Banana's rock! I mean, they are sweet, portable and...taste YUM!!  Did you know they contain a ton of fiber and potassium?  Most people bake with them when they are overripe - things like Banana bread, muffins, oatmeal....Frozen they are superb as an icecream substitute or, in a Shakeology Smoothie! 

For something a little more formal than eating it raw, why not try something from the list below?

2. WHOLE WHEAT BAKED BANANA DONUTS WITH PEANUT BUTTER GLAZE | THE BAKER MAMA

Baked doughnuts. What's not to love? Ingredients included are whole-wheat flour, mashed bananas and just a touch of brown sugar. The “glaze” is just peanut butter, However, I would try a scoop of Whey protein with a tsp of Coconut oil and a touch of water instead.  Recipe makes 12 servings.
