RECIPES SCRAPBOOK
We were at the Benmiller Inn twenty plus years ago for part of our honeymoon and back to the Benmiller Inn and Spa a few years ago for our anniversary.

WAIT DON'T RUN, THESE BANANA MUFFINS ARE TASTY AND FUN
& easy & moist & great for breakfest & ... Don't discard those over-ripened bananas. The ones that are getting soft or bruised and black. Here's a solution for you and them. If you don't have the time to prepare the banana muffins right away, just place the over-ripened bananas into the freezer until you have the time. Remove the bananas from the freezer with adequate time to thaw a little. The fact that the banana peel will appear black doesn't hurt. It means that the inside will be soft and add nicely thawed in with the rest of the ingredients. 1 cup mashed bananas 1 cup "Miracle Whip" salad dressing 3/4 cup white granulated sugar 2 cups flour (2/3 c whole wheat, 1-1/3 c all-purpose) 2 tsp. baking soda 1/2 tsp. salt In a medium to large bowl (you can easily double the ingredients) beat bananas.
