Right then..

Well the events of the week in & around our Cyberworld have been quite the rollercoaster haven't they?
So in keeping with my thought of my being thoroughly-- boring I'm posting something I promised our own Cherie! A recipe~!

Ohhhh yes...contain yourself! ~lol~

Now bear in mind this is NOT out of the EFL cookbook .. but it's ever so Yummy & it gets not only the kids but my darlin to have a way to eat a balanced protein & carb meal/snack without spending $$ on enough bars for everyone-- that sometimes don't agree with tummies later ( this for you my dear Cherie ;)
We've taken this stuff boating, hiking & yes Stef -- up to the mountains skiing!

So without futher ado..

Chocolate chip power banana bread!

2 cups multigrain flour
2 scoops protein powder (vanilla or choc work well)
2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp nutmeg


2 cups( 4-6) mashed bananas
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla



Mix the wet ingredients together & let stand..Mix dry stuff together & then fold the wet into it... Add in a handful of choc chips ( some nuts too if you're really ambitious or want the extra benefits )

pour ..& I use the word lightly since this stuff will be pretty sticky into a breadpan coated with nonstick spray

bake at 325* for 50-55 min
cool & wrap right away with foil or Saran & then foil ..Stays moister this way

ENJOY! :D

That sounds pretty good. I like anything with chocolate chips!

I put a few mini choc chips in the "homemade protein bars" and it makes them very yummy. They are kind of dull without the chips....

A little chocolate always makes things nicer. Except for bananas! Yuck! I wonder if applesauce would be a good substitute? This would be a great portable BFL food to make.

Thanks for reminding me that I need to try my new recipe for the week. If this is boring, well, then I like boring.

Yummy! So very not boring! Anything with chocolate is worth the effort in my book! This recipe is going in my "special" folder. :)

I know, I know. What does that say about me? In my defense, I want to like them. I keep trying them. They're so portable and full of potassium. And the shape. What's not to love?
