You are probably asking yourself two questions right now: What does that title mean? And why is Lindsay talking about breakfast?

I have chosen to participate in a Foodbuzz Top 9 Takeover fundraising event to support the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund.  Electrolux and Kelly Ripa are hosting this event (hence the title).  For every banana split recipe posted by a Foodbuzz featured publisher, Foodbuzz will donate $50 towards the research fund!  So why not participate?  This is an ice cream blog after all.  You can help raise money too by building your own virtual banana split on Kelly Ripa's website, Kelly Confidential.  Check it out and help support a great cause.

On to the second part of the title - Breakfast of Champions.  I find this phrase is used to represent many things, but usually it is a sarcastic representation of a breakfast that is not so good for you...like beer or dessert.  This week I decided to make a Cereal Ice Cream and pair it with fresh fruit to make the ultimate breakfast banana spilt.  The sweet and robust flavor of the ice cream (along with a little bourbon) will remind you of a spoonful of cereal and milk, and it is the perfect accompaniment to crunchy cornflakes, fresh blueberries and bananas.  Top it with a cherry and you have makings of a Breakfast of Champions!  Or lunch or dinner, who cares?  Throw caution to the wind and enjoy this ice cream any time of day.  I would eat this everyday, if I could get away with it!  Enjoy!
