Banana Cream Pie
The heat and humidity is rising, cool off with this frozen banana cream pie! This pie serves eight, but in reality four firefighters. Keep this in mind when making at the station. Limit your portion if your goal is weight loss or if you had a heavy dinner before.
Consider buying the bananas the shift before to allow them to ripen.
