Grilled Banana S’mores

These are certainly nothing new or original, but they ARE all over Pinterest, especially as grilling season is upon us, so I felt like I should try them. Plus, since I started the Slimfast challenge a few weeks ago, I’ve been doing a pretty decent job of watching what I eat and Grilled Banana S’mores won’t ruin your diet. I figured at the very least it would help curb my sweet tooth! (I REALLY want a big batch of chocolate chip cookies, but the 10 pounds I’ve lost so far are very motivating! 

INGREDIENTS
bananas (1/2-1 per person)
mini marshmallows
mini chocolate chips
granola
toffee bits

PREPARATION
1. Cut a slit in the banana, lengthwise, but not all the way through to the bottom

2. Spread open and stuff with marshmallows and chocolate chips

3. Place on a sheet of tin foil and loosely fold over the ends and top (leave lots of head room so you don’t get melted marshmallow all over the top of your tin foil

4. Grill over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, until the marshmallows are fluffy and the chips are softened and melty

5. Top with whatever crunchy topping you like- toffee, granola, graham crackers, vanilla wafers, etc.

For years consumers have struggled to fit the large round fruit in their refrigerators. And then there was the problem of trying to cut the fruit when it kept rolling around. But 20 years ago a forward-thinking farmer on Japan's south-western   island   of Shikoku solved the problem. The farmer, from Zentsuji, in Kagawa prefecture, came up with the idea of making a cube-shaped watermelon which could easily be packed and stored. To make it happen, farmers grew the melons in glass boxes and the fruit then naturally assumed the same shape. Today the cuboid watermelons are.......................

Mixed Review: Crate & Barrel vs. Trader Joe's Cornbread

Mixed Review: Crate & Barrel vs. Trader Joe's Cornbread : " 'The Trader Joe's cornbread was some of the best cornbread I've tasted, from a mix or otherwise.' Ever wonder about a boxed mix you've seen in the store? Is it any good? Could it replace something you'd otherwise make from scratch? Welcome to Mixed Review , where the whole point is putting boxed mixes to the test! —The Mgmt. Two years ago, I did a roundup of standard supermarket cornbread mixes for this column and was generally unimpressed with all of them. They were gummy, thin, and cloyingly sweet. I called Jiffy, my top choice, 'solid, if not sensational' and recommended doctoring it up with add-ins like sun-dried tomatoes, poppy seeds, and pecans. This year, I thought it was time to revisit the cornbread basket by comparing two readily available specialty mixes: Crate & Barrel's Buttermilk Cornbread Mix ($8.95) and Trader Joe's Cornbread Mix ($2.69).
