Fourth of July is just around the corner, two days away to be exact. For the holiday weekend, I'm whisking away to Temecula enjoying a little vacation with friends. Barbecues, swimming, wine, and good company...can you sense my excitement? I haven't been on a vacation for over a year now - I think it's about time I get one! To get ready for this weekend, I'm bringing a batch of these amazing s'mores banana sandwich melt. I've seen almost every form of s'mores but I have yet to see a grilled sandwich with banana. It's just as easy to put together as the traditional s'mores but possibly, just possibly, might be tastier.

**Helpful tips and common mistakes

S'mores banana sandwich melt, a little Nutella, marshmallow, and banana sandwiched in crusty bread, how can you go wrong? All my childhood (and adulthood) favorite items in one bite!

This recipe works well with thick crust bread and can be prepared without the banana. Although the s' mores sandwich melt is great without banana, the fruit adds a juicy component to the sandwich and makes it that much tastier.

I'm drooling just looking at these pictures...prepare to make a large batch because these s'mores banana sandwich melts will run out quickly!
