Didn't quite turn out as I had expected

For the past few months I have been trying a high protein, low carb diet. Not diet, I mean 'way of life'. I realized that this would be challenging since my typical day is made up of oatmeal for breakfast, and either pasta or rice for lunch and dinner. But hey, no problem...it can certainly be done...I just have to eat a lot more meat. As it turns out, I don't really like meat that much. It is hard to eat enough meat to fit into the high protein category. The simple solution: protein shakes. Rob drinks them all of the time, so I am sure that I can handle them, right? Um, no! Rob's protein shakes taste horrible! I don't know how he can drink that crap. I had to spend half of an hour just psyching myself up to drink it (the smell would really get to me) and then once I did it took all of my willpower to keep from gagging it back up. Gross, I know...sorry, it's the truth. So I shopped around for the best smelling and tasting protein powder. I did find a decent brand (Designer Whey), but their shake still left something to be desired. That something just happened to be bananas. On a whim I chopped up and froze a banana one night with the intention of throwing a couple frozen chunks in my regular shake in the morning. I got the idea from Jamba Juice. Seriously, how did I not think of it sooner!?! The next morning my protein shake with banana was fantastic! Ever since then I have been adding a few slices of banana to my shakes. Well a few days ago I bought about a dozen bananas and chopped them all up and threw them in a big freezer bag. Up until this point I have only been using a banana or two at a time since I only use about a quarter of a banana per shake. Well when I pulled out my bag of frozen bananas this morning to make my shake, this is what I found...

...a big, frozen lump of banana slices. They were frozen into a huge rock!! I couldn't even manage to break a few chunks off...it was SO hard! I started prying into it with a knife, and the knife broke. Granted it was a plastic knife, but still this thing was hard enough to break a knife. So now I have a hunk of banana in my freezer. I don't want to let it thaw out and get all mushy. I think that I will have to remove it and monitor it's frozen-ness this evening and break the bulge up and then package in smaller, more manageable baggies. Really I thought that it was such a great idea to do it all at once. Well, I learned my lesson! Maybe I should just give up with the bananas all together??
