There is a purpose behind the title and it’s all in the name of OCRF which is the acronym for the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund.  Foodbuzz is posting a challenge  to spread the word and raise money for the fund.  It will donate $50.00 for every Banana Split post by a Foodbuzz publisher. So…..Do The SPLIT!

Some required ingredients…

For one split to be shared by two …or eat it yourself, it’s THAT healthy.

  • 1 fresh, washed strawberry, sliced
  • 1/2 kiwi, peeled (you’ll only use about 2 to 3 slices)
  • 1/2 a banana, cut in half length wise
  • 2 TBS crushed pineapple in 100% juice
  • 2 Luigi’s ice (at only 60 cal. per ice cup with 1 g sugar and 0 g fat, these are a dream)
  • Optional: whipped cream and cherry

Scoop the frozen Luigi’s ice from the cups and place on a plate, dividing in half the lemon ice.  Put one scoop of strawberry ice in the middle and 1/2 a scoop each of lemon on either side of the strawberry. 

Place a slice of banana on either side of the ice scoops. 

Top each scoop with choice of fruit:  strawberry, kiwi, and pineapple.  If using, finish with whipped cream and a cherry.

If you want some crunch, how about adding 1 TBS of healthy low-fat granola? That sounds good.
