Was looking for something that was healthy to eat..I had bananas and strawberries but I didn't want a smoothie..I started thinking about what I could make..this is what I came up with..my initial thoughts was to make a fruit quiche..had to quickly change gears and make this into a custard..is deliscious and healthy..to make this even healthier substitute coconut palm sugar for the brown sugar.. I would've if I had any on hand..plus I do think it would taste even better..very lite..!! And versatile .was also gonna put in some coconut but my hubby doesn't care for it all that much.hope you like!
