(13,564 posts)10. Peel and slice the bananas, then freeze the slices
I do this all the time because I was tired of bananas going bruised and squishy after few days. I slice the bananas and collect the slices in freezer bags. I use the frozen slices in my oatmeal every morning. I microwave the oatmeal so it gets too hot to eat but after I stir in 6-7 banana slices, it's just the right temperature and the banana slices are sweet and jelly-like. I also use 4-5 slices in my post workout smoothie: on big scoop of whey, one small scoop of collagen, half a cup of strawberry/banana kefir, one cup skim milk, a teaspoon of L-arginine alphaketogluterate (to prevent muscle soreness), teaspoon of flaxseed oil. Banana slices keep for a while in the freezer.

I know, I am the only banana eater, too. I'll put them in the fridge. Thanks for the answer!
