Bananas, Foster Style 

1 banana, sliced (100 gm) 

2 T. sugar-free maple syrup (Cary’s, of course) 

1/2 c. fat-free cottage cheese 

Who knew that these could cook up into a delicious dessert?

Lightly coat a non-stick skillet with butter-flavored cooking spray. (I used I can’t believe it’s not butter… 3 squirts.) Place over medium heat. Add sliced bananas & fry for about 1 minute. Add maple syrup to the skillet & gently coat the banana slices; continue to cook for another minute. Heat the cottage cheese in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds. Top the cottage cheese with your maple-glazed banana slices & enjoy bananas foster without the fire or the guilt!
