Quick Tip: Campfire Banana Boat Recipe
Remember this childhood treat? Here’s how to make them:
Peel back one strip of the banana peel (keep the peel attached on the other end). Slice the exposed banana in half lengthwise, but do not slice through to the peel on the other side. Fill the split banana with mini-marshmallows and smarties (or chocolate chips or chocolate bar pieces). Replace the peeled back banana peel and wrap the whole banana in foil. Place on the grill of a campfire. Once the chocolate and marshmallows are melted (you’ll have to keep checking–don’t overcook), remove from heat, grab a spoon and eat the hot gooey goodness between the peel.

May want to point out to the Americans what Smarties are. They think of them as icky chalky Rockets.

Thanks Jinx, I forgot that not everyone grew up on Smarties (eat the red ones last). I added a link for the Smarties :).
