My family and I love this recipe. I used cinnamon instead of the cardamom, some lemon juice instead of the lemon zest, used 2 eggs instead of 4 egg whites and doubled the coconut. It was very moist and had a mild flavor. Best of all...we know it's healthy! Yum! People have already asked for the recipe after trying some.

Way too dry; very little flavor (lemon zest was not enough). Looking for a way to use a box of Farina, but this was not it!

I enjoyed these as breakfast bars, snack bars, and dessert. Having a 13 x 9 pan of them was a bit much for two people, hence my need to modify them.

The flavor wasn't too bad, it was interesting with the lemon and cardamom but it was just way way too dry.

These bars are a good way to use Cream of Wheat. The recipe was modified to say 1/3 cup honey and I used cinnamon instead of cardamom ( I didn't have any). These taste very good and are more healthy for the kids.

These cookies were not very good at all. They were dry and overpowered by the spice. The recipe called for 1/3 tsp. of honey (did it mean to say 1/3 cup of honey?) They were not sweet at all as fortold in the description.
