[Becky]

Kacie- can I get your oat bars recipe? They sound perfect for breakfast on the go! Thanks!

[kacie tri-ing]

Sure! I make thing up most of the time :-) Thus, LOTS of variation!

2 ish cups of thick cut oats
6 egg whites
about 1/2 cup of almond milk, or whatever milk
Cinnamon
Sweetener (optional: My mom uses splenda or truvia, I use about 1 tsp of brown sugar and 1 tbsp of honey)

Optional stuff! I (or my mom who loves my random recipies) have tried all kind of variatons

Smash 2 bananas, and chop 1/2 cup of walnuts

Raisins or other dried fruit

PB2 (dried peanut butter) or some almond butter

Pumpkin!

My personal favorite....chocolate chips


Two options: 8x8 glass pan for 30 minutes at 350
or muffins for about 25-30 minutes

As you can see...I make things up. The point is that you are baking the oats in egg whites and milk with whatever flavor you want!!

I hope you enjoy! I would love to hear if you come up with another variation!

[Becky]

Thanks! That looks awesome!

with no-fat olive oil spray

No offense intended, but I had to laugh at that one Sounds a lot like the Emperor's new Clothes...

I know - but that is what the can says and they wouldn't actually lie would they

Of course the reality is there is probably as much olive oil in the spray as the amount of real estate I own (none) but it sounds good!

[Tri Girl]

B: high fiber english muffin, one egg, 1T organic jelly, 1C OJ

L: two homemade chicken wraps with lettuce, tomato and guac, baby carrots

S: apple and watermelon slices

2nd S: 16 Thin mint cookies

D: two small slices of homemade pizza

did speed intervals on the bike for 45 min, ran for 45 min and did 45 min of P90X. Had to repent for those cookies- I just couldn't help myself.

Isn't the deal that there just isn't much anything in the spray?

B - Two pieces of whole wheat toast with olive oil margarine.

S - 20 oz. soy hot chocolate

L - 2 quesadillas with Daiya cheese, a yellow carrot, vanilla soy yogurt, grapefruit sprinkled with sugar, and a chocolate peanut butter builders bar.

S - A berry muffin from Caffe Ladro (it's always nice when coffee shops have vegan pastries!).

D - No chicken noodle soup with two more pieces of whole wheat toast and margarine and I'll probably have some cookies!

[Catrin]

Yep - and it does do the job, the ingredients in order:

100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Soy Lecithin
Propellen
no chloroflurocarbons

Still don't understand why it can have no fat or calories, but there you go.
