I'm a Chiquita Mom Plus a Giveaway (5 Winners)

 I am so excited to have been chose to be part of the Chiquita Mom campaign.  A Chiquita Mom is a mother who uses nutritious meals, snacks and products to better the quality of life for her family. And of course one of the best snacks out there is a Chiquita banana. When it comes to fruit, bananas are one of the only things that my kids are willing to eat. But until I become a Chiquita Mom, I never knew just how many uses there are for bananas.  On the Chiquita website I learned a lot from nutritional tips and found dozens of fun and healthy recipes to make with my children. Here is just one example.



Chiquita Banana No Bake Cookies

Ingredients:

  • 3 Chiquita Organic Bananas, with brown spots
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Butter
  • 1/2 cup 2% Milk
  • 3 cups Quick cook oatmeal
  • 2 cups chopped Walnuts
  • 1 tsp. Vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp. Kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup Peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup Cocoa powder (optional)

Instructions for:

easy Chiquita Banana No Bake Cookies Recipe

Combine first four ingredients in sauce pan and bring to a boil. Stir frequently until mixture has a smooth consistency. Remove from stove and stir in the remaining ingredients. Divide batter into 24 cookies, place on wax paper and let cool completely, then refrigerate for 1 hour. Store in an air-tight container.





I was also lucky enough to receive an amazing prize pack and five lucky winners are all going to receive one as well. The Chiquita prize pack includes the followig:
