Banana Bread

Part of pinching pennies is knowing when to use items which would normally be thrown away. For example, don’t throw out your browning bananas. They make delicious contributions to smoothies or banana bread. If you don't have time to make a loaf of bread or a smoothie immediately, put the bananas in the freezer. They will be ready for use any time you need them. Check out an easy recipe for banana bread on the recipe page.
