Loaded oatmeal bars

Before cutting into bars. :-)

On the go breakfast

Low carb treats. Tom Petty said it best...The Waiting Is The Hardest Part.

From Ambitious Kitchen, but a little twist of my own

Recipe by The Big Man’s World

My grandmother used to make these for me. Depending on how big of pieces you want, this can make about 8-16 squares

These are so yummy and easy to throw together. Perfect for when you're wanting something on the sweeter side, but want something *slightly* on the healthier side. Recipe adapted from : honeysuckle at YouTube.

These Energy Bars are the most decadent yet healthy thing to emerge from my kitchen this week, and let me tell you they are worth every crunchy bite! They are the perfect bake-sale treat, hiking snack, or healthy homey dessert. Or have one for breakfast, with your morning cuppa or a glass of milk.These home-made energy and protein bars are super healthy because they do not contain any butter or flour. Filled with the goodness of creamy house-made peanut butter and an assortment of nuts and dates, this delicious recipe is definitely a keeper.

These bars are super simple to make and are a terrific snack or a healthier sweet treat. You can use whatever you'd like for the mix-ins (dried cranberries, raisins, shredded coconut, chocolate chips, etc.). Recipe adapted from: cleananddelicious.com

I got this recipe from my friend Bridget, who makes it regularly for her children. She keeps some wrapped portions in the freezer and takes them with her when they go out.

I wanted something sweet, so I combined what I had, made some changes to 2 different recipes, and this is what I came up with! Their nice and soft, with just the right amount of sweetness to them.

My mom makes a recipe called peach crisp in the summer when we can get some ripe, juicy peaches on our hands. In the winter, I like to make just the topping of this dessert with a few added ingredients. This will hold me over until peach season.

Granola bars are very popular these days because they are healthy, delicious, and affordable. They're even better if you make them fresh with your own carefully chosen ingredients!A few more tipsYou can add any dried fruits you like (apricots, raisins, strawberries, etc.) as well as nuts (hazelnuts, walnuts, etc.). When you take it out of the oven, the mixture will be soft, but it will harden as it cools. It keeps well at room temperature for several days. Thanks to ANGOLINA for the step-by-step photos.

Wanted an oatmeal cookie recipe w/o raisins,(my wife isn't a fan). Found one, tweaked it a few times, and these are... well, fantastic!

These are my favorite granola bars! You can substitute the raisins and seeds for any dried fruits or nuts that you wish. I also have a Chocolate Chip Almond Granola Bar on my page! :)

As you can see I'm a chocoholic but you can replace chocolate chips with raisins or other fruit

My favorite oatmeal cookie recipe. They stay chewy and are delicious. Recipe source: Sallysbakingaddiction.com.

These cookies have chewy middles with crispy edges. I usally make them ewith broken up heath candy bars and regular raisins but today I used heath bits and chocolate covered raisins with the exact same dough. A different take on the chewy oatmeal and just as good!

Cheque and crunchy with toasted oats and a sweet suprise in every bite, the Chocolate Chip Granola Bars are a must for your lunch box rotation!

My husband's favorite granola bar! I have a Raisin Seed Granola Bar on my page as well (for a healthy bar), which is my favorite!

Pinterest find. ;)

These are chewy and delicious. Feel free to substitute butterscotch baking chips (which is what the original recipe calls for) if you can't find salted caramel ones. Recipe adapted from: Sally's Baking Addiction Cookbook.

Needed something easy and healthy for my boyfriend to eat in the morning on the way to work. He loves them. I stock my freezer with all different kinds so he's not eating the same thing everyday

Bento box lunch . This is for one lunch and will make 4 oatmeal balls. I like to double or triple this recipe to make more for prep lunches or for snacking. Sometimes I will add in mini chocolate chips to this.This is also a great sweet treat when craving something sweet. I use theses in lunches all of the time and just add in some fresh fruit and veggies. This is a good alternative for granola bars.

My favorite cookie. And everyone who tries it raves about it.Add some icing on the top and you can't beat it!
