🍌 We're going Bananas! 🍌


Hi, Reader!

If you've been with me long enough, you know that I have a video of the five things I'll never dry again.

Bananas were on the list.

It's not that I can't figure it out. In fact, this week, I'm sharing 5 secrets to getting the perfect crunchy banana chips every time!

The big reason is ... we just don't like them anymore.

My husband and I realized that after having been sick with C-vid a few times in the past four years, bananas just don't taste right to us any longer. Has that happened to you with some food?

I get a lot of comments from people who feel defeated by dehydrating bananas, even though it seems one of the easiest projects to tackle.

So this week - I'm sharing those tips to help you.

I created a trail mix recipe that tastes so fun, and we don't notice them as much, either!

It's this:

  • 1 part dried bananas
  • 1 part dried strawberries
  • 1 part dried cherries
  • 1 part chocolate chips
  • 1 part nuts or seeds
  • 1 part dried marshmallows

I've included the recipe link below if you want to print it off!
