Quick & Tasty Banana Spread

Hi my favorite readers! How many times have you bought bananas, only to find them getting overly ripened before you had a chance to eat them? Instead of tossing them aside, turn them into spread.

You can use the spread on toast, bread, in celery sticks, as a pita chip dip or simply as a side dish for your meal. This makes a great addition to your holiday menu.

Banana Spread
1 banana, peeled
cinnamon
nutmeg

Use a cereal bowl. Place the banana into the bowl and mash thoroughly with a fork. If you want more taste, add cinnamon and/or nutmeg to your taste.

Store leftovers in the fridge.

How quick, tasty and easy was this?

Quick & Easy Veggie Soup

We're all pressed for time. Many times it's too easy to choose a processed meal. Instead, make your own batch of veggie soup. It's quick, easy and oh so cheap...

Cut up your favorite veggies. Include broccoli, carrots, onions, potatoes and a clove or two of fresh garlic. If you don't have fresh garlic, use bottled minced or garlic powder. Mix up all the veggies. Lightly coat with olive oil. Mix thoroughly to coat all veggies.

Place veggies into roasting pan. Lightly sprinkle with Italian seasoning or basil, rosemary, thyme. 

Place container into 350 oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until you can easily poke a fork in to the veggies. Refrigerate leftovers for future use....like the below veggie soup.

Either open a can of prepared veggie broth. Or, use your homemade variety. Add some roasted veggies. VIOLA! There you have a quick, easy and budget-friendly way to enjoy a healthy meal.

Serve with wholegrain crackers, bread or noodles.
