Homemade Granola Bars Recipe

If you were at our April meeting, you probably tasted the delicious dish Sarah S. brought. Many of you asked for the recipe, so here it is:

Homemade Granola Bars
1/2 cup peanut butter (she uses the natural--no sugar kind)
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup coconut oil

Heat on low in saucepan until melted together. Remove from head and add:
1 cup oats
1 cup combination of: coconut, sunflower seeds, peanuts, chocolate chips, ground flax seed, raisins (or other dried fruit or nuts)
(Just take your 1 cup measuring cup and start filling it until you reach the top.)

Spread in an 8x8, 9x9, or slightly larger pan. Cover and refrigerate until firm. Cut into bars. Individually wrap in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator.


April Mid-Month

April MOPS Meeting

Today's meeting gave us lots of great info and put us to work! Our special guests today were from the Cape Girardeau County Master Gardeners Program. They answered questions and shared lots of wonderful information on container gardening.


After listening to all the helpful input they had to share, they put us to work! We got our hands dirty and did some gardening of our own!


What a fun morning! Hopefully the rest of you ladies were smarter than me and secured your pot down in your car before taking off! Needless to say, my car is now covered in soil. :)

Only one meeting left ladies! Praising God for the wonderful year we've had so far!!!!
