Steamed Brussel Sprouts

This vegetable, originally cultivated in Belgium ( which explains the name ) is full of healthy ingredients!

Recently when I was researching diet for healthy long hair, I came across this cabage looking tiny vegetable.

It has everything you want in your food, less fat, protein, vitamins(A,C,B-6) and doesnt taste too bad either! 

I heard boiling it with water will strip off its valuable nutrients, here is the procedure I follow

1) Steam it 

2) Add salt to taste

3) Pepper if you like

4) Some lemon juice to taste if you like

Quick! Isin't it?

Banana Walnut Bread

It's the all new improvised Banana Walnut Bread.

Formula 

2 Cups granulated sugar
1 Cup softened butter
6 ripe bananas, mashed  (approx 3 cups)
4 eggs, well beaten
2 1/2 cups cake flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.   With an electric beater, cream together sugar and butter until light and fluffy.  Add bananas and eggs, beating until well mixed.  Sift together remaining dry ingredients THREE TIMES and blend with the banana mixture until JUST blended, don't overmix.  Pour into two lightly greased 5"x9"x3" loaf pans and bake at 350 degrees for 45 - 55 minutes; until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.  Turn loaves out onto a rack and let cool.   If you are going to use these for gifts, you might want to use 8 small foil loaf pans (check for doneness at 35 minutes) or a large bundt pan. Add  wallnuts on top.
