Banana Blueberry muffin smoothie

While scrolling on Facebook the other day a great avoidance tactic to “avoid” raking the endless leaves that fall onto our property from the neighbors tree. I stumble on an article of the many benefits of Bananas. Now, I know that bananas have a staying power and are a great source of potassium and magnesium. I see so many of them on RAGBRAI you would think the monkeys from the Amazon had overtaken the towns that us cyclists roll through. That said I greatly dislike bananas, I am okay with banana bread sometimes, but to go as far as to pick one up and just eat it, naw… I cannot remember a moment in my years of existence that I have ever just grabbed a Banana for a snack, Plantains I LOVE; dried banana chips sometimes are okay, nothing else though I can't hang the smell nor the texture.

Back to my original point now. I read this article and decide okay taste buds change every seven years I will try a banana smoothie… I loved it! (Well after adding blueberries.) Now I will share with you a few of the benefits of bananas that most people are unaware of and how you can make a fabulous smoothie that even banana haters will dig.

Banana Benefits

High fiber content helps with regularity, also bananas are soothing to the digestive system and helps restore electrolytes.
