Strawberry Mango Bliss

 

Good Morning, 

Today I still had half of my mango and strawberry ices. So I made a bit of granola to go in it...thus the spoon. I'm going to need a straw too. Do you eat your mint? I do. It's growing like crazy, why not eat it?

Ingredients
3 cups Old Fashioned Oats
1/2 cup olive oil
3/4 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons molasses
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla
chocolate chips and peanuts ( as much as you like )

To Make It:
Pour oatmeal into a glass microwaveable dish and cook for two minutes; stirring once. Combine all other ingredients into a bowl. Add in oatmeal.Stir until well blended.

To finish, use either the microwave or oven. Both methods are listed below --

Microwave method: Pour mixture into a glass dish and microwave on high for 4 minutes or until golden brown.Stir every minute.Cool on wax paper.
Enjoy!

OR
Oven method: Pour mixture into a large cake pan and bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes. I'd start watching it after 10. It can burn fast! Stir every 5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of raisins. Cool on wax paper.
Enjoy!
