What I did yesterday

Our standard lunch is a banana sandwich for Vince and one of those instant cup of soups for me. We usually buy a pre-packaged bunch of bananas but with the extreme hot weather, they very quickly become over-ripe and really squishy.
I froze the last of the last batch we bought but yesterday I thawed them and made two banana walnut loaves. I will cut them in half and freeze them for future eating.
If one looks a bit short, it’s because we had a slice each before I remembered to take a photo.

I love banana bread...those look delicious.
Judy, I've eaten banana sandwiches for years, but it's always seemed like we are the only ones in the US who eat them. I'm so excited to know you all eat them, too!
I make ours by putting lots of mayonnaise on plain white loaf bread, then cutting a banana in disk size pieces. How do you all fix them?

@JudyEv I'm just so surprised you all in another country like banana sandwiches. You don't know what you're missing!

I'm sorry to disappoint you but I don't eat them at all. I can't stand the look of them. Bananas in bread? No thanks. ![](/Content/images/emotes/rofl.gif)
Vince butters the bread then squishes a bit if they'll squish; otherwise cuts them in rings. I do know others here who like them so maybe it's me that a bit funny about them. ![](/Content/images/emotes/hugs.gif)

We love banana bread a lot here. It's so good anytime.
I have heard of a peanut butter and banana sandwich, but never just a banana sandwich before. I just like my bananas sort of plain, or in bread, or a fruit salad. And they have to be on the green side, because I don't like it when they get very ripe, which of course they do very quickly. I generally just buy maybe 3 at a time at the most.

@MarieCoyle That is just about my most favourite dessert. If I see one on a menu, I have an entree/starter just so I'll have room for a banana split. ![](/Content/images/emotes/lol.gif)

Yes, it truly is. I’m not sure just why I like bananas on the green side, but I do. One day last summer my daughter and I shared a banana split. I hadn’t eaten one of those in many years. It was delicious but huge, the two of us couldn’t finish it all!

I haven't baked anything in years... about 7, since I moved. I don't really like my kitchen here with its electric stove and no counter space.

I always applaud one who can make a delicious banana bread with bananas that all too often go "bad" before they are eaten. I don't care much for bananas, personally. But I have always been fond of banana bread. I will take mine without the walnuts, though.

Bananas can make for some tasty meals. Banana pudding, bread and muffins come to mind. I enjoy bananas in my cereal too.

I enjoy a banana sandwich now and again. I did not know that you could freeze bananas.
