Top of the Morning

by Hillary on May 2, 2010

I know… by the time I finish writing this, it’ll probably be about time for lunch, but I haven’t written a post before 8:00pm in a while, so I thought the title was semi-appropriate. I made an ambitious to-do list today, starting with a special breakfast, so I was very peeved when I woke up with a sore throat. Really? I can not believe my timing. Anyway, a little scratch in my throat isn’t going to stop me from making the breakfast I’d been dreaming of for the past 7 hours. I got my creation inspiration from Miss Tina.

Grilled Banana Sandwich

003

Who said grilled sandwiches had to be savory?

Instructions: In a small bowl, mash 3/4 of a ripe banana [eat the other 1/4 while cooking] with 1 T toasted chopped pecans and 1 tsp. unsweetened coconut. Spread between two pieces of whole wheat bread. Grill in a skillet with a touch of real buttah, using a couple bowls to press the pieces of bread together. Cook ‘til golden, about 2-3 minutes each side. Enjoy with a jam jar of 1% milk.

I also sipped on some sencha with breakfast in hopes that it would help my soothe my throat. Unfortunately, it didn’t do any magic, but at least I got in my 1 cup of green a day!

What started your Sunday morning?

Well, I’m not so sure I’ll be getting around to that run I planned on after all – bah humbug – but I’ve got plenty to keep me occupied.

Take it easy!

Your grilled sandwich looks divine! I had oatmeal with banana and nuts this morning… same key ingredients but not as much fun!
