Monkey Pudding (Bananas, chocolate and vanilla pudding)

Vanilla, banana, chocolate, banana, vanilla layers of pudding goodness 
 I like sweets, I like sweets a lot.  However, in trying to eat healthier, I've tried to make better decisions on the sweets I'm eating.  This means that I've tried to limit sugar and fat in my sweets.  This pudding isn't the best thing out there since it uses sugar free, fat free Jello pudding, but it does have a banana in it.  I hate bananas, like really, really hate bananas.  The texture really bothers me; however, in this recipe, the banana doesn't bother me so much.  Once again, I apologize for these pictures, but it is really hard to take an amazing picture of pudding.  Pudding just isn't that photogenic, but let me tell you, it is delicious.  Buy yourself some chocolate and vanilla jello pudding and a few bananas and enjoy this sweet treat after dinner. The measurements aren't an exact science, but this is a super quick dessert and I normally make the two puddings before I start dinner and by the time I make and eat dinner, the dessert is ready to assemble.  This is easy peasy and tasty!

Ingredients:
1 pkg Sugar Free, Fat Free Chocolate Jello Pudding
1 pkg Sugar Free, Fat Free Vanilla Jello Pudding
1 cup of milk, divided
1 banana
2 containers
1 bowl (or two if you have to share)
a spoon

In one container, add half of the SF,FF chocolate pudding mix.  Then add half a cup of milk.  Mix the pudding until it starts to turn into pudding.  If you need to add more milk because it is too think, feel free to add it tablespoon by tablespoon.  If add too much milk, add a little bit of chocolate pudding mix.   Once the mixture has mixed the ideal consistency, put the lid on and put in the refrigerator.  In the other bowl, add half of the vanilla pudding mix and half a cup of milk.  Use the same process that you used for the chocolate pudding mix, until the desired consistency is met.  Place this in the refrigerator next to chocolate pudding.  Go do something for 20 to 30 minutes.

Come back in 30 minutes and grab yourself a bowl, spoon, the banana, and a knife.  Peel the banana and cut it into slices.  Grab your spoon, the two pudding containers, and the banana pieces.  Take your spoon and spoon some chocolate (or vanilla) pudding into the bottom of the bowl, then put in a layer of bananas, then spoon in the opposite flavor of pudding, and then put in another layer of bananas.  Keep layering pudding and bananas until you're out of pudding and bananas.  This can make one or two desserts, depending on if you need (or want) to share.
