It was heavenly! Aloha, Lucy I lived on Guam for 3 years and loved using their cooking bananas – frying in the skillet like you mention, plus frying them in coconut milk. It was heavenly!

A friend gave me some plantains the other day and I'm just waiting for them to get to the "just" past ripe stage for frying them Cuban style....platanos maduros fritos....they make their own caramel on the edges and are delicious!

I love reading your blog - You're a food person, as I am! Cooking lessons? I don't stray too far from Mexican and Italian dishes, but do experiment when ingredients are limited and could definitely learn a thing or two from your ethnic recipes. I keep meaning to tell you that the photo of your black cat looks exactly like our "Inky-Dinky". Aloha, Evie Don’t know what happened to my reply – I’ll try to remember what I wrote prior to this.

You are definitely a food person, as I am. I don't usually stray too far from Mexican or Italian - but love different flavors - especially when I'm down to a certain number of ingredients. Glad you enjoyed the chili Colorado. Cooking lessons? I bet you could teach me a thing or two about your ethnic recipes!

I've done more experimenting with food recently since my kids are no longer doing the 3 squares and snacks every day too. I am curious about using cooking bananas in more dishes. Thanks for great ideas! Hi Lucy, I am inspired by your post to experiment. I’ve done more experimenting with food recently since my kids are no longer doing the 3 squares and snacks every day too.

You certainly do know how much I love spicy! I like experimenting with whatever I have on hand. By the way, your spicy red beef burrito surpassed all expectations! I could have one of those every night for supper! Aloha, Lucy I should come take cooking lessons from you, Evie! You certainly do know how much I love spicy!
