*Correction on the Granola Bar recipe...

That should read 1/4 teaspoon of salt

This looks really delicious. Have you actually tried it? I am curious how it is going to turn out. Seems like a great quick breakfast meal for me to have ready. Thanks again.

Yup, I'm eating one right now as I type this message. They're more like a cake than a bar, but yummy nonetheless. Just be sure to chase them with a lot of water, to allow the whey to be absorbed.

They're great warm, with a little splenda and cinnanom sprinkled over top.

If you're ballz-out bulking and don't care about mixing fat with simple carbs, I would suggest adding a melted stick of butter and crushed pecans (or peanut butter) into the mix before baking...drool.
