Banana Oatmeal

Original Recipe

By James Bellows

2 cups Plain Oatmeal
3 cups Water
2/3 cups Brown Sugar
2/3 cups Maple Syrup
two Sliced Bananas

Add Oatmeal, brown sugar and maple syrup to the water and bring to a boil. When it is boiling turn it down to a simmer and slice the bananas into it. Cook until bananas “dissolve” and the texture is creamy and somewhat thick.

Serves 4

I am not usually an oatmeal fan, but this is absolutely delicious. It has a taste similar to banana bread. It comes out really sweet, so you can experiment with the amount of sugar and syrup for your own tastes, but be sure to compensate less syrup with a little more liquid of another kind for the texture.

Garlic Olive Linguine

Vegetarian

1 cup Sliced Green Olives with Pimiento
2 oz Salted Butter
1 tbsp Olive Oil
5 cloves Minced Garlic
2 tsp Italian Seasoning
2 tsp Garlic Salt
1 lb Linguine
Parmesan Cheese

Heat Olive Oil in small sauce pan. Add Minced Garlic and Italian Seasoning. When Garlic is just starting to brown, add the Salted Butter. When butter is completely melted, add the Sliced Green Olives. Cook only for a short time, then set aside.

Boil water and add Linguine. Cook until al dente (mostly done, but not yet completely tender).

Add olive sauce to pasta, and grate Parmesan over the dish to taste.

* If you want a thicker sauce, a half tbsp of flour can be added. Take sauce off the heat, add flour, then place back over the heat, stirring constantly until desired consistency is reached.
