Tropical Bananas Foster
Freshly sliced bananas and pinapple meet soft vanilla ice cream and a savory cinnamon-flavored sauce to give you one decadent dessert. Fresh fruit is always best, but for the sake of convenience, the precut variety is also worth reaching for.
Yield: 7 servings (serving size: about 1/2 cup banana mixture and 1/4 cup ice cream)
