These are so good: http://www.howsweeteats.com/2011/04/strawberry-almond-granola/
Seriously, these may even be better than Roller Derby Granola Bars. Of course, I do consider these to be derby food. Why, you ask? Because when I'm skating for two hours at a time an average of four or five days a week, I'm always starving. But because I don't want to overcompensate in calories consumed, I've been trying to snack healthily and often. I figure this is how high school kids must feel. It's been long enough that I don't remember what it's like to be a teenager.
The author of the original recipe (whom I adore!) insists that she's the most impatient person ever. I may disagree. I shortened her recipe a bit. Also, I needed granola bars rather than bits of granola, so I didn't toss it throughout.
I took photos of this process and the end product. Then my phone mysteriously deleted a bunch of pictures. WTF.
By all accounts, these are DELICIOUS.
I need to start buying honey in bulk.
