Ingredients

• 3 whole Bananas
• 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts
• 0.75 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
• 0.25 cup Raisins or dried cranberries (optional)
• 4 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the bananas and slice them into 1/4-inch rounds. Place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl.

Step 2

Drizzle the lemon juice over the banana slices to prevent them from browning. Gently toss to coat evenly.

Step 3

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt and honey until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Add the yogurt-honey mixture to the bowl with the bananas. Gently fold the mixture to coat the bananas without breaking them apart.

Step 5

Sprinkle the chopped walnuts and raisins (if using) over the banana mixture. Fold gently to distribute them evenly throughout the salad.

Step 6

Transfer the salad to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.

Step 7

Serve immediately for the best texture or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
