You could always ask a kind individual who knows the recipe to make some for you while you are waiting to procure... as long as the dish is crafted it will work toward the writ...

Thanx thats a good idea. Do you know the recipes? Lol had to ask

Provisioning writs are really tough to do until you learn a LOT of recipes. If I don't have both recipes, I usually just abandon them at daily turnover and pick up the next one, just in case I find it during the day. That way I don't miss the next day's writ because I'm waiting for one from days ago. If you want to, you could try finding a high level provisioner in the forums and see if they would be down to do a trade-off (writ items for gear/runes/gold/etc).

Nice to see I wasn't the only one having trouble with this. I had grog but could not find the banana one for the life of me, I even tried every guild trader I could reach in Auridon and Grathwood and no dice. Naturally after I abandoned it, my new alt found it within about ten minutes.
Considering the vast amount of potential recipes in this game, and the utter randomness with which they're looted I think it'd be much easier if it either picked 2 appropriate recipes that you know, or there were special recipes that you would know to complete the writ, but that would have no other use (Rift does something similar)
