Cooking Tip

Over Ripe Bananas

• Don't throw out those overripe bananas. Peel and mash the bananas (speedy in the blender), stir in 1 teaspoon lemon juice for each banana, and freeze the banana mixture in an airtight container for up to 6 months. Defrost the banana puree overnight in the refrigerator and use in breads, cakes, daiquiris and other drinks, puddings, etc.
