BANANAS FOSTER SUNDAES FOR 2

Bananas Foster Sundaes for 2 image

I have wonderful memories of eating bananas Foster in New Orleans and, as a dietitian, I wanted to find a healthier version. I combined the best of two recipes and added my own tweaks to create this southern treat. And with this version, it's the perfect dessert for two! -Lisa Varner, Charleston, South Carolina
