This One Will Make You Go Bananas With That One Special Ingredient!

While Alexa was at the house, she prepped the strawberries beautifully. She chopped off the tops, then washed them and dried them all until they were ready to use.  I am telling you, we had a wonderful time chopping strawberries and mashing bananas which got me thinking that this was the perfect recipe to make with kids.  There is so much hands on things you can do with this recipe and your grand kids will love all the washing and drying, mashing and stirring involved in this recipe!
