Bananas wrapped in bacon

Strange combination that works...

Sounds like a strange combination but it works! The sweetness of the banana mixes with the savoury bacon. It helps to make the rashers as lean as possible by trimming as much of the fat as you can.
Serves four

Ingredients

• 4 bananas
  
• 4 slices of lean rashers
  

Method

1. Peel the bananas – remove the stringy bits as they’re often bitter
   
2. Wrap each banana tightly with a slice of rasher, then wrap the lot in tin foil
   
3. Put a skewer lengthways through the banana
   
4. Cook on the barbeque for around 10 minutes until the rasher is cooked through

Spicy scrambled eggs

Simple Egg Supper

Eggs are rich in protein as well as being a source of iron. They are also a source of two important antioxidants - lutein and xeathanthin – which help to keep eyes healthy. Serves one

Ingredients

• 2 eggs
  
• 1 tablespoon salsa
  
• 1/4 red chilli or ¼ teaspoon dried chilli (this can be adjusted to taste)
  
• Drop of olive oil
  
• Salt and pepper to taste

Method

1. Heat about a teaspoon of olive oil in a frying pan (non-stick if you have it) on a medium heat
2. Beat the eggs with the salsa and as much red chilli as you like. If this is your first time using chilli, leave out the seeds
3. Pour the mixture into the heated pan and mix gently until it is cooked enough for you
4. Serve on its own or with wholemeal toast. This also makes a quick lunch with crisp salad and cherry tomatoes
