INGREDIENTS

1 ts Vegetable oil
3 c Old-fashioned oats
1/3 c Honey or molasses; heated
1/4 c Wheat germ
1/2 c Raisins OR orther dried
1/2 ts Cinnamon
2 tb Sliced almonds
2 tb Vegetable oil; plus

Servings

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Line jelly roll pan with foil. In large bowl, combine oil, honey, and cinnamon. Add oats, wheat germ, and almonds. Stir well until the oats are coated. 2. Spread mixture over prepared baking pan. Bake 20-25 minutes until golden, stirring occasionally. 3. Remove from oven, add raisins, and set aside to cool. Each serving: About 315 calories, 22.8%cff, 10 g protein, 53 g carbohydrate, 8 g total fat (1 g saturated), 0 mg cholesterol, 5 mg sodium. SOURCE HomeArts "Making It Healthy -- Breakfast" BY TAMARA HOLT Notes: Work Time: 5 minutes, Total Time: 30 minutes. I have a friend who eats the most sugary, artificially colored and flavored kids cereal for breakfast every day, and she claims it is healthy. "Its fat free and vitamin enriched," she protests. I tell her she might as well have a glass of milk, a lollipop, and a vitamin pill instead. Healthy? Well, yes, no, and sort of. The milk, especially if it is low fat, is a great source of protein. The lollipop, low fat or not, is just empty calories. And the vitamin is just meant to supplement an already healthy diet. If you are a cereal fan, beware of commercial products. More often than not, the first or second ingredient is sugar. My homemade granola is a perfect alternative. It is rich in fiber, protein, and the antioxidant vitamin E. By making your own, you not only customize it to your taste, but create a tasty treat that is far lower in cost than supermarket cereal. While you may be surprised to find that this cereal has a few more calories and fat grams then some store-bought brands, youll find that it "sticks to your ribs" better, so youll be less hungry throughout the day.
