Island Grilled Bananas
Low Salt/Sodium Recipe

This recipe will turn those healthy, powerful bananas into an exotic treat! Great as a dessert after a cookout or as a bonfire treat!

Ingredients:
Four small bananas
2 tablespoons dark rum
1 teaspoon coconut extract
2 teaspoon 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 30-35 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. Recipe makes 4 low salt/low sodium servings.
