Kids hate eating healthy. It’s a sad and unfortunate truth that we have to deal with. They grow up with fast food, ice cream, and other sweet treats. Naturally, their palettes are geared towards these types of food.

As parents, it’s our job to get our kids to eat healthy snacks and foods like fruits and vegetables. At times, we may need to get creative, and this banana recipe is the perfect solution. Creamy and cool bananas are the perfect replacement for store bought frozen treats.
