Campfire snack...grilled Bananas

 A great snack for all our "Climbing Monkeys"
Grilled Bananas
For each, cut a banana crosswise into 1/2 inch wide slices and place the slices in the center of an 18 inch long piece of aluminum foil. Sprinkle the banana with 2 teaspoons brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice, and a dash of cinnamon. Dot the banana with 1/2 tablespoon butter cut into pieces. Bring the long edges of the foil together and fold them together above the packet to form a handle; make sure all seams are closed tightly. Use a long stick to place the packet on a warm grill or the coals of a campfire. Let it cook for 15-30 minutes. Remove the packet from the heat, place it on a plate, and carefully open the foil. Let it cool. Top the banana with vanilla ice cream, if you like.
