It is inevitable. Even if you have one of those odd-looking banana holding devices (wish I had thought of that one!), you are going to have bananas go bad on you. I also used to toss the mushy, gnat-attracting, speckled messes away, until I remembered what my bestest buddy's mom did with them when we were teenagers.Carefully peel them, wrap them in a small piece of saran wrap, and throw them in the freezer. Combine one frozen banana with any fruit, a bit of yogurt, milk, and honey and you have a potassium-loaded and healthy treat.
Great blog Chris!!! It is definately difficult to make quality food choices with a hetic family schedule. I am starting to adopt Jillian Michaels theory "if it didn't have a mother or come from the ground...don't eat it"! I am finding that our metabolisms aren't completely genetic. Our bodies thrive on simple basic foods. Not the myriad of chemically induced junk we have introduced to our sensitive digestive systems. I can't wait to try some of the recipes. Yet, I must admit the Ceviche is intimidating and seems to go against everything we were taught about raw fish and eggs! Then again I didn't realize what I was really eating when biting into an oreo cookie...much less what I was doing to my metabolic system. Thanks!
