My sister brought over a bunch of bananas on Easter Monday. Of course, they were too ripe to eat so I decided to make Banana Bread. I had all the ingredients to make Banana Bread except for the eggs. Luckily, my sweet neighbor, Angie, had eggs and so I was able to get started.  Ingredients…

A former co-worker gave this recipe to me years ago. She didn’t give me exact measurements, but I’ll try to write them out for you. She used rigatoni pasta in her recipe.
