Simple, Fun Banana "Ice Cream"

Oops! Did you forget to eat the bananas, again?

If you are anything like me, you either wish you had a couple more at the end of the week, or you are tossing that last sad, mushy banana in the freezer. Sometimes those frozen bananas get put to good use in baked goods. Other times, they hang out in the back of the freezer for a few months before ultimately being thrown away.

According to Food Finders, a food rescue nonprofit organization with a primary focus on reducing hunger while also reducing food waste, Americans throw away five billion bananas every year. While banana bread can be a great way to use overripe bananas and reduce food waste, you may be looking for something a little different during the hot days of summer.
