Banana Sushi...What?

My 6 year old comes back from school and demands (few tears were shed) I make him some Banana Sushi. He is not a big fan of the regular Sushi so it was surprising. I asked him what he was asking me for and with his :Really Mom!" expression he politely asks me to "google it". To my surprise there are about a million versions out there.


Till date I get a different story of where he heard or saw Banana Sushi but I am so grateful he discovered it. Its our favorite snack these days and its super balanced and healthy. I have my own version of it with Hemp Seeds.
Hemp is a high protein seed containing all nine of the essential amino acids. Great thing about it is that he protein is a very digestible form and easily absorbed. It also has high amounts of fatty acids and fiber as well as containing vitamin E and trace minerals. It has a balanced ratio of omega 3 to 6 fats at around a three to one ratio.

RECIPE: Banana Sushi

Ingredients

1 Ripe Banana
1 Tbsp Peanut Butter (yes! I like JIF)
1 Tbsp Hemp Seeds (You can use anything you have)

Method

  1. Peel the banana and slather it with peanut butter. Sprinkle hemp seeds on it and cut into slices. Is this easy or what. You can use any seeds you have, Chia, Flax even crushed nuts like Pistachios, Walnuts, Cashews. Get creative and send me pictures of your own version.

This is making me so hungry. Time to eat some Banana Sushi with a cup of coffee. Hope you all have a great day.
