Serves 4
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 (3.74-ounce) package vanilla instant pudding mix
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup milk
- 2 medium bananas, sliced

Meanwhile, combine pudding mix, sour cream and milk in a mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until thick, about 2 minutes.

Instead of purchasing canned or jarred pizza sauce from the supermarket, ask your favorite pizza parlor to sell you a cup of their house-made sauce. It is usually less expensive and always fresher tasting.
