lets hear it for Bananas!

Go to: http://www.rachaelrayshow.com/food/recipes/rubys-lightened-mashed-sweet-potatoes/
and check out this recipe for mashed sweet potatoes. Instead of adding that oh so yummy touch of brown sugar to them, Rachel Ray adds a BANANA! I was flipping between Noggin and PBS for Emma this morning and caught a glimpse of her saying this.

Also, Emma is big on "I ate my veggies, so what is for dessert?" kick. So in place of that typical cookie or whatever, we have been getting creative....the latest - DIRTY LOGS. :) Take a banana and slice in 1/4 inch slices. Thread them on a toothpick to make the log, and then roll in cinnamon (not sugar cinnamon). How funny to see her eat these like there was no tomorrow!

Going bananas,
Jill
Don't forget to spend that extra 10 cents and go organic on them....if you look down on your way into the grocery, you are more than likely to find that 10 cents in the parking lot!!!!
