Delectable Dishes: Banana Boats

Good morning bloggies!
How have you been?  What have you been up to?  What about me?  Well...yesterday, I got to spend some much needed time with my Nana (so much time that I forgot about Wednesday's Fair Fido post- my bad!).  With gas prices so high it is hard to visit family as often as I would like, and I treasure the time I get to spend with them.


How hungry are you this morning?  My little cousin Ethan inspired this morning's post by chowing down on my Nana's bananas (what a rhyme!) yesterday.  I found this recipe on the "Lick My Spoon" blog.  Wouldn't this be a cute no-fuss snack or dessert in the heat this summer?  I just love it!

Banana Boats


Banana Boats
Ingredients:
Bananas (As many as you need. Estimate 1 per person. Once they taste it, no one will want to share.)
Chocolate chips, butterscotch, peanut butter chips, sweetened coconut (Or whatever other toppings you fancy.)
Foil
Preparation: 
1. Choose your bananas. I personally like mine ripened until perfectly spotted. I think they are sweeter this way.
2. Slit the banana lengthwise.
3. Stuff them with any combination of toppings you desire. I am a big fan of dark chocolate and butterscotch.
4. Line your grill with foil, and place the nanas on top.
5. Grill with the cover on until toppings get melty and delicious.
6. Eat with a spoon.

Hang in there guys it's almost the weekend!
Have a blessed day :-)
