Happiness 101


Pleasure can be as simple as making yourself a nice breakfast ...

Bananas make me happy!  This morning I woke up to 2 almost over-ripened bananas and decided to give myself a good treat!  It totally makes my day!



French Toast with Bananas (Serves 2)
4 slices of bread
2 bananas
2 large eggs
1/2 cup of milk
1 Tbsp organic sugar
1 Tbsp sunflower seeds (or any of your favourite nuts)
Drizzle of honey
Butter
Olive Oil

Cut bananas in half and slice across each piece lengthwise.  Put banana slices into hot oiled pan.  Sprinkle organic sugar onto the uncooked side of the banana slices.  Turn the banana slices when the down side is browned.  Fry the sugar coated side until the sugar starts to caramelize.  Put aside bananas.
Beat eggs and mix in with milk.  Soak bread slices into milk mixture.  Fry bread slices in butter/ olive oil over medium heat until both sides are slightly browned.
Place cooked bananas on french toasts, drizzle over honey and sprinkle with sunflower seeds.  Of course, you can be creative (or greedy?!) and add in all sorts of extra condiments like cinnamon powder, chocolate sauce, ice cream and so on.
