Banana Split Breakfast

Before you gasp in horror and wonder if I have really lost it...let me just say that it's lots healthier than it sounds!Molly found this recipe in a kids magazine and it was a smash hit. Here's the recipe:

1. Slice one banana in half lengthwise (we had to cut them in half again because our bowls weren't long enough).

2. Add two or three hearty spoonfuls of yogurt. Two yogurt containers were enough for my 4 kids.

3. Top with cereal. We wanted to use granola, but we were all out, so we used cornflakes.

4. Finish off with berries. We didn't have any fresh berries, so we used frozen ones (I microwaved them).

It was a very hearty breakfast, my kids didn't ask for a snack until 5 mins before lunchtime. Success!

  4. My kids make that too! Macy got it from a recipe box of kids recipes from my mom for Christmas--one of the things we are doing for homeschool is teaching her how to cook and read and follow a recipe!

  5. Molly is so pretty! I love that you let your kids just run with things. I bet it's so fun at your house. Um, can I come live there?
