Oatmeal Fruit Smoothie

This is one of my favorite breakfast smoothie recipes. Sometimes my guys complain about eating oatmeal (especially because I don't add sugar) so this way they still get the health benefit of rolled oats. I usually add a scoop of protein powder to the morning smoothies so the brain has plenty of amino acids to get it going.

To make this smoothie, throw everything into a blender and let 'er rip.

1 banana
1 cup strawberries (fresh or frozen)
1 cup milk
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

HomeMade Granola


Granola is generally considered a healthy treat but if you are buying packaged granola bars, the health benefits can go south on the health scale. Way south. Let's return to granola's health roots with this basic granola recipe.

Granola is one of those foods that allow for a great amount of creativity so feel free to mix it up with your favorite healthy, whole-food ingredients.

4 cups rolled oats (not instant)
1 1/2 cups sliced almonds
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 cup cooking oil
1/4 cup honey
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup raisins

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Mix oats, almonds, brown sugar, salt and cinnamon in a bowl. Set aside. Warm oil, honey and vanilla in a saucepan. Pour this mixture over the oat mixture and stir until blended. Spread the granola mix on a 15x10x1 baking pan and bake 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, cool and mix in raisins.
When I make granola, I always make a double batch because it doesn't last very long. We eat it as cereal for breakfast and mix granola, yogurt and fruit for a midday snack. Yum!
