This news is bananas…B-A-N-A-N-A-S!

A new breakfast food-hack is taking the Internet by storm, and it’s banana peel bacon! Charles Hunter III, a personal chef and food blogger, sears marinated raw banana peels in a hot pan until they are crisp and dark and imitate the meaty breakfast treat.

The marinade is made with vegan Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, garlic, and onion powder.

"This is a perfect way to use banana peels, and minimize your waste," Hunter shared to Instagram. "It would be great on a sandwich, crumbled on salads, grain bowls, or in your wraps. Either way, try it this week, and let me know how it goes!"
