couple of food experiments

first banana dessert… fried bananas in butter and brown sugar:

next time we won’t use nearly as much butter and sugar, turned out a little mushy.

much healthier food experiment was my nice big salad. I marinated chickpeas, green pepper, avocado, tomato, snap beans, and some cucumber in lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper.  while that was marinating, I boiled about a handful of pasta and piled my plate full of fresh spinach and spring lettuce mix (bulk a the wedge). topped the pasta and green stuff with a couple ladle fulls of the marinaded mix, a hard boiled egg (not pictured here), and some oil and vinegar. very healthy, filling and tasty!
