​No More Ugly Banana - October 2018

​It's almost fruit salad time of year in our house. My kids love fresh fruit salad as a snack and as a dessert and because I make it, I know it's fresh and healthy. To save time I make a 4-litre ice-cream container full every Sunday to last the week. But the problem is the banana. I found a tip in the Tip Store about soaking the banana overnight and thought what the heck, I'll try it. Best tip ever! Now before I go to bed on Saturday night I put a couple of bananas in a bowl, cover them with water and let them sit. When I make the fruit salad, I just peel them, slice them and tip them in. The banana stays creamy for at least three - four days before it starts to turn brown. By then the fruit salad is on its last legs, so a little cream on top hides it. No more wasted fruit salad and the kids get the goodness from the bananas.
