According to NBC sportscaster Ahmad Rashad, men and
women behave very differently in the kitchen. "When
men cook, it usually looks like a disaster area," says
the former Minnesota Viking. "And there's no rhyme or
reason to what they make. My father sometimes cooked
chicken for breakfast. And when he cooked, everything
came out six times bigger than when Mom cooked."

Rashad's father prepared banana pancakes for him when
he was a little boy, back in Tacoma, Washington.
Washad, in turn, makes them for his 5-year-old
daughter, Condola Phylea. On Super Bowl Sunday, he
promises, she'll be starting off her day with a short
stack.

1. In a mixing bowl, using a hand or electric mixer,
beat eggs for 2 minutes until frothy. Add flour,
baking powder, milk and oil. Stir in bananas.

2. On a hot griddle, pour 1/4 cup batter for each
pancake. Cook until edges become dry, about 2 minues
per side. Top with banana slices. Drizzle with honey
or maple syrup and sprinkle with pecans.
