MomDot Party: Day 4
Can you believe it? We’re already in the fourth day of the MomDot Christmas Party and the fun is just getting started. So far we’ve learned about each other’s families, our traditions, and our shopping habits. So what’s left to talk about? One of my favorite subjects – FOOD!!!! Today’s topic is:
What is your favorite Holiday recipe, describe your Holiday table, biggest holiday cooking disaster.
Hmm….Well I am still lucky (at least I think it’s lucky) enough to not really be in charge of the cooking when it comes to the holidays. I’m still able to just show up to most family occasions. I do have one food responsibility though for all family holidays – the banana pudding. I’m not sure where all of you readers are from, but if any of you are southern girls, then you know that no holiday meal is complete without the ‘nana pudding. I don’t think I make the best in the world, but it is pretty tasty and there’s usually none left by the end of the holidays.
No Bake Banana Pudding
Ingredients
- 1 package instant vanilla pudding mix (5 ounce)
- 2 cups cold 2% milk
- 1 can low-fat sweetened condensed milk (14 ounce)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 container frozen light whipped topping, thawed (16 ounce)
- 8 ounces of whipped cream
- 1 package low-fat/light vanilla wafers (12 ounce)
- 4-8 bananas, sliced
Directions
- In a large mixing bowl, beat pudding mix and milk for 2 minutes.
- Blend in condensed milk until smooth.
- Stir in vanilla and fold in half of frozen whipped topping and the whipped cream.
- Layer wafers, bananas and pudding mixture in a glass serving bowl. (I make 2 – 3 layers)
- Top with remaining whipped topping and crumbled wafers.
- Chill until serving.
Hmm….after typing this, I’m glad Thanksgiving is almost here….I’m ready for some holiday pudding. Now head over to some other MomDot blogs and see what type of holiday food stories everyone has to share.

Looks like a fairly simple recipe. All my family likes bananas except me, so I try to make banana something every now and then. Thanks for sharing.

I’m not usually a Banana pudding kind of girl. I don’t like most stuff that’s flavored banana and lately even real bananas don’t taste good to me. But I like that this recipe uses real bananas for the flavoring!

I’ve been in the south for 7 years and we’ve recently gotten into banana pudding, but I’ve never made it. This sounds great! Here’s My Day 4!

I got a bunch of bananas the other day and told my kids we would have to make banana pudding. They looked at me like I had two heads! I guess I’m not bringing them up properly.

I made banana pudding for the first time a month ago and it was TERRIBLE! You can tell I was raised in the north – I don’t make it; I don’t eat it!
