So sad… though chipmunk cheeks are undeniably adorable. In my efforts to find new and interesting smoothie ingredients, I discovered Stonyfield's Banilla flavored yogurt. That's right. Exactly as it sounds… vanilla and bananas. A little bit of genius, huh? Though I'm not usually a fan of artificial banana flavors, this convinced me otherwise. It made great smoothies and even better panna cotta. Here I used Mario Batali's recipe as a base and substituted banilla yogurt for plain and added a shot of dark rum for a twist. It definitely had a tropical feel to it, so I added sliced bananas and a dollop of citrusy kumquat compote before serving. This is a must try even if you can eat solid food.
Happy Friday!

[this is good] Great photos again! Banilla huh? Interesting. I love both bananas and vanilla. I gotta try this flavor soon. Now I must have some ice cream after seeing your photos.

I know how B is feeling, my teeth have been reminding me that it’s time to visit the dreadful dentist.
Lovely, lovely dishes like yours here would take away all my pain. This panna cotta had got to be better than Vicadin. 😀
