Ingredients
6 small bananas
3 tbsp dark rum
1 1/2 tsp coconut extract
1 tbsp brown sugar
Directions
Make a small slit into the skin of each banana. Cut through 1/4 inch of
each banana and drizzle in some of the rum, extract, and sugar. Close up
the skin with a toothpick. Prepare an outside grill with an oiled rack set
6 inches above the heat source. On a gas grill, set the heat to medium.
Grill the bananas in their skins for about 30 to 35 minutes until the skins
are blackened and the bananas are hot. Slit each banana and push the ends
in to fluff up. Eat like a baked potato, directly from the skin.
This recipe yields 6 servings. Serving size: 1 small banana.
Exchanges Per Serving: 1 1/2 Fruit.

Diet Island-Grilled Bananas Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Weight loss dietsThe Atkins’ Diet Now nearly 5 decades old, the atkins diet has been one of the most popular weight loss systms over the last few years. Although not accepted by all scientists, it claims to allow fat reduction whilst allowing you to eat foods that are normally considered bad for diets, such as bacon and eggs. On the atkins diet you eat protein and fat, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. Because of this, it is known as a high protein, low carb, nutrition system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. With the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a result, olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The controversial theory behind the famous atkins diet is that if we cut down on carbs, our bodies will utilise our fat and we will reduce weight |
