Are you a Chiquita Mom? A Chiquita Mom is a mother who uses nutritious meals, snacks and products to better the quality of life for her family. Being a mom is one of the most rewarding jobs out there, and moms need all the natural energy they can get. Energy drinks, bars, and supplements contain a lot of sugar, too much caffeine, and only attempt to mimic essential vitamins and minerals. Chiquita bananas are full of three kinds of natural sugar and natural vitamins and minerals, making them an ideal source of energy for moms like you. The Chiquita banana may seem ordinary, but it packs a punch without the gimmicks. Not to mention, Chiquita bananas are so versatile in the kitchen, easily-transportable, cost-efficient and, often times, Baby’s first solid food!The twins absolutely love bananas (aka "mana"). I honestly think they would eat only bananas, if I let them. And I feel good knowing I'm giving them such a healthy food to eat! I can also make cookies, banana bread, smoothies and more with this one delicious fruit.
Chiquita sent me a great Chiquita Moms kit, which includes everything you need to help you feed your family Chiquita bananas. First off, there's a coupon for free bananas and a reusable grocery bag to carry them in. :-) Next, there's this really neat flip book with all types of information about bananas. For example, did you know that the different stages of ripeness in a banana provides you with different nutrients? Bananas with green tips and necks provides healthier carbs, whereas bananas with brown spots have the highest levels of antioxidants. You can also freeze bananas that are getting soft in order to use them in recipes at a later date. There are even freezer bags included in the kit for freezing your bananas. Seven recipe cards in the kit can give you ideas on how to serve bananas in more interesting ways, and you can also find these recipes online here. I *really* want to try the Chocolate Banana Pop recipe...yum! Lastly, there are adorable bibs for your child to use at meal time.
So, the question remains...are YOU a Chiquita Mom?

I learned that you can slow down the banana ripening process by storing the fruit in the refrigerator. The skin may darken, but the banana will be just right for several days.

The banana plant is not a tree, but the world's largest perennial herb and grows up to 25 feet, developing massive banana leaves that may extend 9 feet in the air.
Thank You for the tip on freezing soft bananas.
