    BANANAS
    ---
    10 bananas
    lemon juice to taste
    1 cup packed brown sugar approx.
    cinnamon or nutmeg to taste
    allspice to taste
    1/2 cup butter
    1/2 c.  mini pure choc. chips
    ---
    Place each banana on sheet of heavy-duty foil. Cut out a very thin V almost the entire length
    of the banana.  Pack this V with mini choc chips. Brush with lemon juice; sprinkle
    with brown sugar.  Dust lightly with cinnamon; dot with butter.
    Fold and seal foil; twist ends. Grill over hot coals for 10
    minutes, you can also add a dash of rum.
    Pass the whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.  If you are feeding a group, scoop out the ice cream ahead of time and place into a big bowl in scoops storing in the freezer until ready to serve...no digging in a pail of ice cream at the last minute.  Great!

    Note: when I made these I used bananas that were starting to get brown spots on the outside, a little riper than normal, they were still wonderful.

    PEACHES
    Make the same recipe without the choc. chips  with peaches or nectarines,
    along with the rum, and serve with vanilla ice cream.
