Wow, everyone needs to try banana ketchup! As someone who can't eat tomatoes or even beets and cherries (so no AIP ketchup for me), this recipe is perfect. I made it the other day with some modifications due to my dietary restrictions and it is so tangy and delicious. Even my husband (who had his doubts at first) thought it was incredible. I will definitely be making banana ketchup on the regular. Thank you for the recipe!
