I love that show. It's a guilty pleasure of mine. I'm way too old to be watching cartoons, but I can't peel myself away from "Adventure Time." <br /><br />I do hope you'll post pics. I'm sure your son will look fantastic! It's funny how the costumes really don't seem to come together as fantastically as they do come Halloween night. I have great faith he'll do Finn some justice. ;)Chubby McGeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01314736525363564330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3717903664128659193.post-81587044088187548242012-10-19T16:11:46.367-04:002012-10-19T16:11:46.367-04:00Hey, Libby. It's Chubby McGee. You asked about...Hey, Libby. It's Chubby McGee. You asked about the granola recipe. I got the "bones" of the recipe from Pinterest, but I tweaked it to make it "healthier" (even though it has butter) than the one posted. I started making our own granola about a month ago. It's super easy (and cheap) and it's one of those things you can fix up to suit your own needs. <br /><br />Unfortunately, I <i>thought</i> I pinned the darn recipe onto one of my boards, but I just checked for you and realized that it's not on there. I even tried to find it again via the search. What I'll do is give you the ingredients that I used for this last particular batch. Yes, it's high in cals/fat, but it also has protein, fiber, and whole grains. 2 TBSP in your yogurt would be GREAT (and it adds so much flavor and goodness). :)<br /><br />1 cup rolled oats (not instant)<br />1/4-1/2 cup honey (use just enough to wet the mixture and bring it all together)<br />1 tsp vanilla extract (or you can use any flavor you want - caramel, coconut, maple, etc.) <br />1-2 tbsp unsalted butter (you can use margarine if you'd prefer)<br />2 TBSP unsweetened coconut flakes (optional)<br />2 TBSP ground flax<br />2 TSP whole flax seeds<br />2 of those teeny-tiny snack pack-sized raisin boxes (probably works itself out to be 2 TBSP of raisins)<br /><br /><br />-Preheat oven to 350° F<br />-Place honey, extract, and butter into a microwavable bowl and microwave on high for about 30 seconds.<br />-Stir the wet ingredients together and set aside for a minute<br />-In another bowl, combine the dry ingredients together<br />-Pour the wet mixture over the dry mixture and stir thoroughly. Get the oats well-coated.<br />-Pour the granola mixture onto a lined or lightly greased cookie sheet and place in the oven.<br />-Bake for about 8-10 minutes on one side, then flip/mix the concoction and bake for another 4-8 minutes. You can stir it a little bit as it cooks, too, to keep it from getting black or burnt in certain spots<br /><br />You can also add nuts, PB2, or other dried fruits...play around with it. :) Have fun! Enjoy! <br />Chubby McGeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01314736525363564330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3717903664128659193.post-87784311838390785472012-03-01T11:04:12.233-05:002012-03-01T11:04:12.233-05:00Your block is wonderful.
