Not really much of a recipe to it, you just take some bananas and either M&M's or chocolate chips (I went for the M&M's), peel one side of the banana down and slice the fruit open. Put the chocolate goodness into the slit you have created and then fold the peel back over the banana. Wrap it in foil and put it on the grill for a few minutes.

I added some marshmallow creme to it and oh man, I was in HEAVEN!!! :slurp:

I'm sure you could throw in some peanut butter or even Reece's peanut butter cups if you really wanted. Hmmmm, I believe I'll give that one a go. :p

i am adding more cruciferous vegetables, legumes, and whole grains and oats to my diet. not only for thier obvious health benefits but also because of their abilities to block harmful estrogens and inhibit certain breast cancer growth. plus there is some research that shows a photochemical in crucifers that affect programmed cell death. recently i heard a recipe for crunchy kale.

wash and dry. cut into chip-size pieces, sprinkle with s and p and a spritz of olive or veggie oil. bake at 375ish for 15 minutes-ish. it get a nice nutty flavor. i think it sounds yummy and i'm gonna try it soon. i'll tell ya'll how it tastes

Burning Man: A foodie heaven

Know that although the article is dated the experience known as Burning Man isn't.


I read a book called The Short Bus about ESE and they are going to BurningMan. Makes me want to go for the food but ummmm I do not camp.

I make Roasted Brussel Sprouts that probably are very similar. I'm sure these would be very good for you. Don't be afraid to get them brown.

I hear you there, my idea of roughing it includes running water and flushing toilets. ;)

bought brussel sprouts today, gonna try your recipe lil.

made the kale today too. i over-salted a little bit, but i liked it. totally tolerable way to eat it.:p my oldest loved it

WildIrish 09-08-2008 08:40 PM

Might I suggest edamame? Easily prepared and very nutritious. We've been eating them like they're going out of style.

wyndhy 09-08-2008 08:48 PM

soybeans are a no-no for me now. tofu and all that sort of stuff, too but oil and soy sauce are still ok, i think. something about the isoflavones and estrogen production (my cancer type has estrogen receptors on it, the estrogen feeds it) i'm not quite sure how it all works, frankly. i'm going to meet with a nutritionist who specializes in this type of stuff, eventually - to learn more than i can from google.:D there's too many differing opinions and studies.

Lilith 09-08-2008 09:58 PM

I heard soy was not a good idea for some tumors. Have you ever grilled squash or eggplant? I soak in Italian dressing then grill. So yum.

wyndhy 09-08-2008 10:01 PM

sounds like sumpin' hubby would like, too. he likes being smothered by a little italian.:D

"Aproach Love and Food with the same Gusto." Somebody said that,or should have. As Wolfgang Puck says, "Live,Love,Eat" Right now I am enjoying the foods of Spain. I love making Paella,and all of those delightful Tapas. YUM..... Just bought the Bible on Italian frozen deserts, compleat with the trinity: Gelato,Sorbetti,and Granite. Guess I'm a amateur foodie,or at least,I'll never starve.

They are so cute. I have a huge individual bundt cakes pan from Pampered Chef. I think I will make pumpkin bread in them.
