Yes, I know it has been a while since my last update! A million apologies; I had my family visiting for 3 weeks, then it took another 2 weeks to get back into the swing of things. But I am back with a happy vengeance! :~)
I have no idea what is up with the recent blogger update *rolls eyes* but will work around it & share an amazing recipe I found (and tweaked!) just for a healthier kick.
I am not going to write the entire process, just because you can find it all over at Joyful Abode. However, below are the ingredients with my substitutes. I didn't do a whole lot of subs, but I will also be posting the nutritional info!!!
2 cups oats
3/4 cup wheat germ (cereal aisle)
3/4 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup peanuts, crushed
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup honey
4 tbsp applesauce
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
