Banana Bread

I used  Banana Bread Recipe  from Banana Bread Cookbook: 51 Easy But Great Banana Bread Recipes book by Eli Hartly. If you are going to bake anyways, why not try a new recipe. I am glad I did. Usually we seem to have only 3 ripe bananas. This time we had 4 just like the recipe needed. I reduced the sugar by 1/4 cup. I could have probably removed another 1/4 cup as the end result was still sweet. I liked the fine melt in the mouth texture. It reminded me of kesari.

Quesadilla

At Costco, a food sample provider placed a tortilla onto a griddle pan.  She then put some mix of many kinds of shredded cheese. Thin strands. A minute or so later, she folded the tortilla onto the half. "Are you making a Gordita?" "No. A Quesadilla" And there it was that simple to make a Quesadilla. I never wondered how to make it, but having looked at it, I know I will make it sometime when the fridge has cheese and we always have roti. One reason for not being curious about Quesadilla is my history with queso. Not so great. But now I am appreciating some kinds. That melted cheese in crusted tortilla, with the toasty smell as well as the brown toasty looks. Warm. What else do we need from food?
