Savannah’s Bananas
Do you like bananas? I luuuurve bananas! This is hands down one of my favorite banana desserts! A buttery, brown sugary, melt in your mouth, banana delight! It only takes about 15 minutes to make and it’s healthy because, it’s loaded with bananas. Ok, so don’t count the butter, sugar, or heavy whipping cream and it’s practically medicinal.

I want to get rid of all the eggplant in the world – Jacks Hinkle, age 5
My son’s response after telling him what we were having for dinner last night. Sometimes, you just gotta be the uncool Mom and serve eggplant. Obviously, the kid doesn’t know what he’s talking about, because eggplant rocks! Besides being delicious, it is chock full of some healthy stuff.
I love eggplant and I love eggplant parmesan. I don’t however, like the heaviness of all the cheese and oil that comes with cooking eggplant parmesan. Instead, I make these little individual eggplant parmesan bites.
I love that whenever I’m in the mood to thwart Jackson’s plans to rid the world of eggplant, I can just walk out to my backyard and grab one of these. Savannah actually planted, watered, and grew these eggplants. For the record, she claims eggplant to be, not my favorite thing to eat. Punk kids.

Don’t you just love it when a plan comes together? More often than not, a lot of my ideas are trial and error. Re-do after re-do, until I get it right. I finally got a break with these little sugar cookie baskets, because they just worked, right from the get.

Salted Caramelized Chex Mix
I’ve been making this snack mix for a few years now. This is my most favorite chex snack mix recipe! Be forewarned….if you make it…you will eat it…you will eat lots of it! Yep, it’s that addictive. When I first stumbled onto this recipe, I made some changes and additions. Somewhere along the way, I made a mistake in one key ingredient. It was a mix up…the big Chex mix up.

OMG! This is probably one of my most favorite meals I’ve ever made. It’s filling, light, healthy, and defreakinglicious! Unless you’re like my punk sister who responded with, “yuck”…then you’ll agree with me about this fantastical meal. Before I move forward, a little side note: Props to the people that style food for pictures. Lord help me, I just suck at it. My pictures do not do this meal justice. Trust. Quinoa and kale cakes with pan seared sea scallops rocked my world!
