Today’s “recipe” is so simple, I’m almost embarrassed. But its potential addition to my life cannot be be overstated.
Weight Watchers taught me years ago to simply stay away from my “red-light foods,” or foods around which I can’t control myself. I sort of follow that rule. As in avoiding-everything-except-my-own-chocolate-chip-cookies rule.
My real problem, though, starts with my proximity to ice cream.
Cookies are only a few WW Points apiece. Ice cream, eaten by the half-gallon, costs considerably more, especially when you factor in wardrobe replacement.
This might just be the answer: Pureed frozen bananas.
If you haven’t heard of the Yonana machine, running at roughly $50 to $70, get out from under that rock. It can turn a banana into soft serve “ice cream” in a matter of seconds.
Believe it. It’s soft, creamy, sweet and takes easily to topping.
Now believe this: You don't need a Yonana.
You need frozen bananas and a food processor. Add in anything you want, strawberries, blueberries, chocolate chips, chocolate syrup, pineapple topping, butterscotch topping, marshmallow topping, nuts, peanut butter, all of the above.
Better yet, none of the above. You’ll have to have it plain at least once. Just to appreciate its genius.

UPDATED INSTRUCTIONS FROM 7/24:
Slice the bananas before you freeze them!!!!
(Slicing frozen bananas could get you killed.)
