This was tonight's dinner, for me anyway. I made a different sauce my DH and
DS. This sounds strange and HOT but it was really good. I think I would love
the sauce mixed into rice too. It was yummy.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 yellow onion -- chopped small
1/2 red bell pepper -- chopped small
1 banana -- sliced
3/4 cup orange juice
2 tbsp lime juice -- about 2 limes
1/8 cup cilantro -- chopped
2 tbsp red or green scotch bonnets -- chopped finely
1/8 cup Parmesan cheese + extra -- freshly grated
1 tbsp unsalted butter
3/4 lb fettuccine
salt and ground black pepper -- to taste
For garnish:
parmesan cheese -- extra for sprinkle
scotch bonnet peppers -- chopped fine*
Put up a big pot of water. When it comes to a boil, add salt and fettuccine
and cook according to package directions.
While pasta is cooking, make sauce:
In a large skillet, heat the oil and saute the onion and red pepper over
medium heat, for 4 minutes.
Add the bananas. Saute them until browned lightly. Add orange juice. Simmer
for 5 minutes over medium heat. Cook until bananas are soft.
Remove from heat. Add lime juice, cilantro, scotch bonnets, and 2 tbsp
parmesan cheese. Mix well.
To serve: Place cooked pasta in pan with sauce and cook for one moment to
mix the sauce with the pasta.
Place some of the sauce in each of two bowls. Top with pasta. Mix well.
Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and chopped scotch bonnet peppers.
Risa's notes:
* I didn't have scotch bonnet peppers, only habaneros. So that is what I
used. You can use more if you want it even hotter. Original recipe called
for 3-4 or a few tbsp of Inner Beauty Hot Sauce.
