This is a great recipe. My son has been begging me to make a strawberry-banana jam of some sort and this recipe was perfect answer! I increased the bananas a little bit to ensure the flavor came through so instead of 2 cups I used about three and increased by strawberries by a cup. I peeled the orange as I am not a fan of the rind and added a smidge more lemon juice to ensure the color stayed nice and red. Overall, a great base to work and try other options from here!
