It’s the 24 days of Chiquita Christmas!
Christmas is coming, and everyone’s thoughts are turning towards the fabulous food to make during the festive season. Naturally, for anyone wanting to follow a healthy lifestyle, this will include mouth-watering recipes containing delicious Chiquita bananas (like our fantastic banana bread recipe below). The best thing about these yummy recipes is that they are light, tasty, seasonal treats that go beautifully with the more traditional Christmas Day fare.
The best thing about Chiquita bananas, of course, is that as well as being the nation’s favorite sweet and creamy fruit, they contain a generous helping of fibre and potassium to aid digestion and heart health. Our bananas also contain energy-giving natural sugars to provide the boost the family needs for this special celebration. Sharing a bunch of Chiquita bananas is also a great family moment to start a day that is all about sharing.
In another exciting festive initiative, Chiquita will use Instagram to reveal its 24 days for Christmas giveaways, which will take place throughout December – @Chiquitabrands will be offering the chance to win exclusive Chiquita goodies including bowls, jackets, power banks, USB keys, umbrellas and footballs – a different prize will be available every day, so don’t forget to check in frequently to win!

Banana recipes are wonderful at any time of year but these very special recipes for banana bread and banana cookies are guaranteed to give your special day some extra sparkle. Why not make them in advance to ensure a little less work on Christmas Day itself – both banana bread and banana cookies stay really fresh if kept in an airtight container and make an ideal snack.
