realize that Bananas Foster would become an international favorite and is
the most requested item on the restaurant's menu. Thirty-five thousand
pounds of bananas are flamed each year at Brennan's in the preparation of
its world-famous dessert.

Banana Cream Pie (Low Fat)
have a wonderful friend who has asked me several times what I have in the
house that is sweet to eat, which I usually do have
something. Unfortunately, she is diabetic. Her desire for something sweet,
gave me the idea to start working on some low fat, ADA compliant
recipes. This recipe was the result of trying to stay within the limits of
what we all should be eating in the way of fats and sugars while still
tasting like a “real” dessert.

Banana Nut Bread
There is a saying about lemons; “When life gives you lemons, make
lemonade”. Well maybe there should be one for bananas as well - when
life gives you overripe bananas, make banana bread! At least that is
what I do.

came from my mother, Dorothy Hagerman. This is a moist, buttery banana bread
loaded with banana flavor. It is very easy to make and so delicious!

tasting banana bread. Very easy-to-make for your family. I made this bread a week ago and it was still moist and tasty.

This is a very moist and delicious banana bread. The use of yogurt in the
recipe allows you to cut back on butter. Very easy-to-make for your family.

Fresh Fruit Salad
This is my favorite fresh fruit salad. My mother-in-law, Gertrude Zemp, taught me to make this when I
was a young bride. It is very refreshing and also low in calories. I use
whatever fresh fruit is in season when making this salad. The banana dressing is
very light and compliments the fruit. You will never want to make a "yucky"
canned fruit salad again!

Fresh Fruit Salad with 1-2-3 Fruit Dressing
This is very refreshing and delicious fruit salad. I use
whatever fresh fruit is in season when making this salad. The 1-2-3 Fruit
Dressing is from an old Betty Crocker Cookbook. The combination of citrus
fruits in the dressing gives the salad a wonderful delicious flavor!

This outstanding recipe is from
Debbie Reynolds of Rocky Mountain Lodge & Cabins of Cascade, Colorado. Debbie says, "This recipe has become a huge
hit with my guests. They always rave over it, eat every bite, and are amazed to have soup

course. If you love mangos, you'll love this recipe."

Smoothies from the article called Blending vs. Juicing. Is it better to juice or blend? There is always a

produce or blend whole foods.

Sweet Banana Peanut Butter Cookies
These are so good!

Ultimate Banana Bread
This recipe for banana bread fascinated me, as
it takes 6 bananas in the recipe. Also the bananas are heated, juiced, and
the juice reduced! I had never heard of this technique before, so I just had
to give it a try. I very slightly adapted a few instructions in the recipe.
