Banana Stand Smoothie Recipe inspired by Arrested Development

THERE’S ALWAYS MONEY IN THE BANANA STAND!

You need a few Arrested Development Banana Stand Smoothies in your life (they have a secret ingredient that makes them extra delicious!). Are you a fan? It’s truly one of the only shows that I enjoy watching the reruns again and again. The many hidden, recurring Arrested Development jokes and foreshadows to what is coming up makes watching past seasons even more funny the second and third time around!

A group of us {Operation Hot Ham Water} got together and planned out a Premier Party menu that you don’t want to miss. Keep reading to the end of the post for links to all of the delicious and silly dishes. There are actually 4 Bluth Frozen Bananas and at least 1 (maybe more) unofficial banana called the G.O.B. if you watch closely.  I would say the prices are reasonable

  • Small ($1.65)
  • Medium ($1.85)
  • Large ($2.50)

And “Ten cents gets you nuts.” ~ George Michael (from The Pilot)

 

Banana Smoothie recipe- It's delicious and has a secret ingredient that makes it fabulous.

My Banana Stand Smoothie is based on the On The Go-Go Banana.

  • The Original Frozen Banana — Frozen banana dipped in hot fudge and covered with fresh nuts
  • The George Daddy — Frozen dipped bananas sandwiched between chocolate grahams
  • The On the Go-Go Banana — Frozen banana in a cup of sizzling hot fudge
  • The Giddy-Girly Banana — Frozen banana dipped in hot fudge and covered with our pink heart candy
  • The G.O.B. — Frozen banana double dipped in chocolate with double the nuts (as seen on “Charity Drive”)

If you don’t have time to prepare smoothies you could always serve juice. Parties with unlimited juice boxes are off the hook.

I would suggest you try the brown sugar in this smoothie. Bananas are surely sweet enough but the brown sugar in the background gives it a nice flavor bump.
