Ingredients
4mediumbananasmedium-firm, not too ripe
1/2cuo]pmini marshmallows
1/2 cupchopped strawberries
1/2 cupchocolate chips
1/2cupstrawberry glaze or syrup
1/3cupchopped raw almonds
Instructions
Heat gas or charcoal grill to approximately 400°F or use a wire rack over campfire.
Cut 4 (1-foot) sheets of heavy-duty foil, set aside.
Using a sharp knife, make a deep incision lengthwise along the top curve of each banana; take care not to cut through the bottom peel. Gently push both banana ends toward each other to create a pocket. Place banana on the center diagonal of tin foil.
Stuff each banana with approximately 2 tablespoons each of marshmallows, chopped strawberries and chocolate chips.
Pull up corners of tin foil to create a tent over the top of banana, leaving a few inches of headroom so marshmallows won’t melt all over the foil.
Place banana packets on heat source, close lid and cook for approximately 10 minutes or until marshmallows are softened.
Carefully remove banana packets and open foil. Banana skins may have turned brown; however, this does not affect taste. Drizzle each banana with warmed strawberry glaze and sprinkle with almonds. Eat warm.
