For the filling:
Place filing ingredients in a food processor and blend unti smooth.
For strawberry sauce:
Combine strawberries and honey in a food processor and blend until smooth.
To Assemble:
Pour strawberry sauce onto plate in a thin layer so as to cover bottom of plate. Pace scoops of fiing onto banana fruit leather strips and roll up. Place on plate with enough room in between so each crepe is not touching. Pour strawberry sauce over the rolled up crepes. Allow the crepes to sit for a couple of hours with the strawberry sauce on top. the sauce will soften the banana leather and make it more "crepe like" instead of firm and chewy.
