RECIPE INGREDIENTS
1 medium banana (ripe, about 4 ounces), peeled and cut crosswise into eight pieces
3 1/2 cups mango , pineapple, or papaya, peeled, cored or seeded, and diced (1- to 2-inch pieces, about 16 ounces)

Taste for sugar and lemon; if desired, add more sugar or lemon and blend until combined, about 2 seconds longer. Serve immediately.
