Foodie Fridays - Only this One is on Saturday - Brian's Simple Banana Pudding

Truth be told I like salty more than sweet!  But when you want something sweet you gotta have it.  My go to sweet is usually Ice Cream - Chocolate Almond Ice Cream to be exact,but at 150 calories for 1/2 cup it is easy to go overboard, quick. My second fav is Banana Pudding, and I have a very simple 5 ingredient Banana Pudding.  It use to be 4 ingredients until I went all Bill Nye and experimented with a new Ingredient.  I like the results.  FYI - I like to use the almost too ripe bananas for this recipe!

So here's what you need:

48 -              Reduce Fat Nilla Waffers

1 box            Sugar Free Vanilla Pudding Mix

2 -3 cups     Skim Milk (to make the Pudding)

2 med          Bananas

and the New Ingredient:

3-4 Scoops     Vanilla Protein Powder

Used all the Bananas and Milk on the batch!

Very quick and easy! In a 9 x 13 baking dish put a layer of Wafers the bottom of the dish.  Then peel and slice the bananas and layer on top of that.  Now make the pudding with the directions on the box, stir in the protein powder and a little more milk and pour over the bananas and wafers.  Set in the frig to chill and set up.  If you have any wafers left you can crush them on top.  

Makes about 12  -  1 cup servings
