Adventures with Mushy Bananas – Part 5

Law school starts full-time on Monday, so I think I’ll draw the mushy banana chronicles to a close with a recipe for a banana smoothie. We can all throw some fruit together in a blender without much thought, but it’s a sign of true genius when someone comes up with a Frozen Banana Latte.

This requires a little planning. The day before you want to enjoy one of these, you have to put some cut up banana in the freezer. Other than that these are easy-peasy and really, really yummy.

Frozen Banana Latte
Serves 1

¼ c frozen yogurt or low-fat ice cream
¼ c milk
1 generous spoonful silken tofu
¾ tsp instant coffee granules, add more to taste
½ ripe banana, sliced and frozen.

Place ingredients in a blender; process until smooth. Sprinkle with cinnamon, if desired.
