Granola Bars III
Great Toddler Recipe. Most toddlers are picky, I think mine are exceptionally picky :) and they loved these. Not to mention you can add any type of dried fruit or nuts depending on they like and what is age appropriate. This recipe is full of good stuff... an extra egg like one reviewer stated not only makes them softer but adds extra protein along with the wheat germ which toddlers never seem to get enough of... :) Also an easy and fun recipe for your toddler to help dump ingredients and mix. My 3 year old is very proud of cooking her "bars". They're a great recovery snack for my teenager after hockey, we add extra wheat germ in her batch. And last but not least they taste great! Thanks for the geat recipe! They're a hit around our house and the hockey rinks!

To Die For Blueberry Muffins
WOW!!! I am so impressed. I was extremely nervous about this recipe when I started mixing the batter and it seemed closer to cookie dough... very thick. I've tried many other recipes in the past and the batter was all similar in consistency... like a cake batter. And that explains why none of them were to die for like this one. Fantastic! These muffins looked like they came from a fancy coffee shop and tasted like they came from your Grandma's kitchen. Nice rounded tops, crunchy, blueberries were set well. Not too sweet. I did as several others suggested and exchanged the white sugar for brown sugar in the topping. The topping makes them taste gourmet. Without… taste like your traditional but to die for blueberry muffin… My compliments!

Foolproof Rib Roast
I've never cooked a rib roast before and like other reviews I was nervous about the cooking instructions. Who wants a $70 hunk of leather to gnaw on… But I trusted the recipe and the rib roast turned out absolutely delicious. Our roast had 3 bones and was 7 lbs, our butcher recommended a cut near the loin instead of the chuck, he said it is a more tender and tasty cut. I would have to agree. The roast temperature was 135 and came out a true medium rare. I did add extra garlic and a mix of Italian style seasonings... we are garlic lovers...Fantastic recipe! I'll definitely use this recipe in the future. Our family decided it will be our new Christmas dinner tradition. Thanks!
