Chewy Granola Bars
i tweaked the recipe a little and they turned out tasty. I snuck a bite and they seemed a little dry when they first got out of the oven, but by the time they had cooled, the honey had worked it's magic and they had just the right amount of moistness. Here's the ingredient list I used: * 4 cups quick oats * 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour * 1 teaspoon baking soda * 1 teaspoon vanilla extract * 3/4 cup whole milk yogurt * 1 tablespoon oil * 3/4 cup honey * 2 tablespoons light molasses * 3/4 cups dark chocolate chips They were not crumbly at all. Following the instructions on when to cut and when to move the bars, might help those who have problems with the crumblies because 1. hot bars seem to like to stick to the pan more and 2.leaving them to cool for a couple hours gives the honey time to do it's magic, so they're moister than when they first come out of the oven.

Waffled French Toast
this is a super easy way to prepare a "fancy" breakfast. I added half a teaspoon of sugar, a few grates of nutmeg, and a couple drops of vanilla extract to the egg batter. I didn't have the strawberries and syrup, So I served it with some cinnamon flavored honey butter and sliced bananas. It was good, but not amazing. However, the convenience makes it worth it to make it over and over again.

Cantaloupe Bread with Praline Glaze
This bread was delicious and it was a HUGE HIT at the "Big Football Game With A Copyrighted Name" party I went to. I'm not a fan of cantaloupe, but I love this. I modified the recipe a bit to make it lower calorie and a little healthier. Here's The ingredient list I used: - 2 eggs - 2 egg whites - 1/4 C vegetable oil - 3/4 C unsweetened applesauce - 1 C Sugar - 1 C splenda - 2 C bread flour - 1 C Whole Wheat Pastry Flour - rest of the ingredients as written Instead of the glaze, I mixed some white sugar and powdered sugar and dusted it on the top while the bread was still a little warm. The bread froze well, too. will definitely make this again.
