Ingredients

2 Bananas

4 small tortillas

Ice cream

Strawberry sauce

Icing sugar

Oil for frying

1. Cut the bananas in half, so you have four pieces.  Wrap each half in a tortilla and fold the ends in.  Use tooth picks to hold them together.

2.  Heat oil in deep fryer and place wrapped up bananas inside.  Fry until tortilla is nice and golden.

3.  Place in bowl with ice cream and strawberry sauce.  Sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Cheesy Chicken Primavera Dinner

This recipe is a variation of a recipe I got from the inside of a Velvetta box.  

Ingredients

2 cups pasta shells, uncooked

2 cups small fresh broccoli florets

2 chicken breasts, cubed

1 cup bell peppers, chopped

1/2 onion, chopped

1 tsp garlic, minced

1 1/2 tsp Itanian seasoning

1/3 cup milk

225 g Velvetta cheese product, cut into 1/2 inch cubes (half a package)

Directions

1.  Cook pasta in large saucepan as directed on package, adding broccoli to the boiling water the last two minutes.  Drain.

2. Meanwhile, cook the cubed chicken in soup pot on high until cooked through.  Add the pepper, onion and garlic.  Cook for 2 to 3 minutes.  Add Italian seasoning.   Simmer on low.

3. Add pasta and broccoli to the chicken mixture.

4. Use the large pot that you cooked the pasta in and heat the milk on medium heat.  Add velvetta and stir until melted.  Once melted add to chicken/pasta mixture and stir until combined.

  Serve as is, or you could also top it with Parmesan cheese or red chili flakes.
