Meet Mr. Stache-wich!

Meet Mr. Stache-wich!

Sometimes play­ing with your food and putting together wacky com­bi­na­tions can be fun but not nec­es­sar­ily edi­ble in the end. Like this guy over here, Mr. Stache-wich, from insanewiches.com. He’s adorable but not exactly eas­ily devoured.

I say this because I recently threw together a num­ber of items and ended up with a slightly odd, but totally deli­cious, and thor­oughly edi­ble, break­fast salad.

This would be a good break­fast for the kids on Christmas morn­ing, it’s fun and sweet for them but not as sweet and way more healthy than an actual banana split.

Banana Splits for Breakfast

pineap­ple

banana

pome­gran­ate seeds

plain yogurt

flax seeds

maraschino cher­ries

roasted, unsalted peanuts

maple syrup or maraschino cherry juice (!)

Steps

  1. Cut up pineap­ple and banana.
  2. Add a few chopped maraschino cherries.
  3. Top each fruit salad “banana split” with a spoon­ful of plain yogurt.
  4. Garnish with peanuts, flax seeds and pomegranate.
  5. Finish with a driz­zle of maple syrup. Tada!

  • Thank you. I'm off to test this recipe on a three year old and five year old.

    I'm going to skip the maraschino cherries and maple syrup. I think the pomegranate seeds will make it pretty enough, and they already love them.
