GRAPE NUT BARS

3 C Grape Nuts cereal
1 C non-fat Soy Moo or any low fat soy milk or rice milk

1 C raisins
2 tsp. vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients together. Pour into a non-stick 9" square baking dish. Bake for 35 mins. or until firm. Cool and cut into 12 squares.

To add some interesting or favorite taste variations, add one or more tsp. of any of the following extracts: coconut, banana, almond, mint, or cocoa powder. Various spices can also be added: nutmeg, allspice, cinnamon, ginger, clove, lemon and orange peel.

These bars keep well in the freezer and are excellent for traveling.

I haven't tried these yet. I'd use butter instead of the margarine and would substitute dried fruit bits for some of the raisins. For those of you looking to add some fat back into your diet, note that these would count as a fat serving.

Got this off of ediets.com . Sounded good, so I thought that I would pass it on. For all of us who love Cinnabons, but aren't willing to spend the points, this might be a good alternative.

3 Tbsp. fat-free margarine or spread, melted
2 tsp. honey combined with 2 tsp. molasses
2 tsp. sugar combined with 1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon
1/4 cup plus 1 Tbsp. raisins
1 10-oz.package refrigerator biscuits (10 biscuits)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine margarine or butter, honey and molasses,
and sugar in a 9-inch pie pan; mix well, and spread evenly. Sprinkle evenly with
raisins. Arrange biscuits on top of topping. Bake 20 minutes until brown. Remove
from oven and let sit one minute. Invert biscuits onto a serving plate.

Makes 10 servings. Nutrition info per serving: 118 calories, 4 grams fat and less
than one gram saturated fat.

Angry

I orrigianly posted this over on WW General site as I wanted the feedback that it got a on a busier board- here is the a link to that thread with a lot of wonderful varriations from other 3FC memebers- http://3fatchicks.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=445 I am reposting it here to help make it easier for people to find.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okay- it is Spring Break time for me again and I re-did the recipe some to make it easier to read- there are no changes in ingredients or amounts from before, just a new and improved format format.

I have also calculated the nutritional info and points (both WP and 123) I figure with all the changes with the real BBC’s we may have more people looking for the recipe now. I included both the protein and carbohydrate stats, which are in line with the revamped BBC ones. I did not do any of the other vitamins as that would take to much time for me to do but I can say that they all have at least 2.5% of calcium (based on 2000 calories per day)- it comes from the yogurt. With the new fiber cap of 4 grams, they still come out to 3-4 points per cookie which is great for breakfast or a snack.

I have also included some new variations that I have tried myself. Each recipe makes four 3-4 ounce cookies- it can be doubled or even tripled- I like to start with batches of 4 so that I don’t make too many before I decide I like them and so I can have variety every week by making several variations.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Enjoy~ Christine

Here is the basic recipe (pick a variation from below- you cannot make just the basic recipe, unless you want a very plain breakfast cookie):

~1 1/2 cups wheat BRAN (NOT wheat germ, wheat bran has 32 calories and 7 grams of fiber per 1/4 cup)- Reserve 1 teaspoon for topping

~1/2 cup whole wheat flour

~1/4 cup packed brown sugar-Reserve 1 teaspoon for topping (FYI- some people have used Splenda with success, others have had problems using it. I find that when using Splenda in baking I need to have some fat added or more moisture. I feel these cookies are low enough in points that I have not tried using Splenda in this recipe)

~1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

~1/2 cup unsweetened, fat free yogurt (non-nutrisweet or other artificial sweetener as they do not bake well)

~1 teaspoon baking powder

~pinch of salt

~1 teaspoon vanilla

~1/2 teaspoon imitation butter flavor (this is optional- can be found in some grocery stores near vanilla or sometimes in combination with vanilla- this helps give some of the "plainer" cookies with more depth- great for use in fat free/low fat baking)


********Pick one of the following variations listed below (you cannot make the basic recipe unless you want a very plain cookie). Follow the instructions, as some variations require that you omit ingredients from the basic recipe though the majority do not. ********

Mix together dry ingredients, then add in moist ingredients to make dough, stirring in fruit or chips, ect at end. Divide into 4 balls, flatten to 1/2- 3/4 inch thick on a lightly greased baking sheet or place into mini-tart pans sprayed with no-stick spray (I place the mini tart pans on a cookie sheet to make putting them in/out oven easy). Top with reserved brown sugar and bran (and nuts, if using a variation that uses walnuts). Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes, until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Do not over bake as the cookie will be dry- they should be somewhat spongy when you push on the top of the cookie (more like a muffin).


***VARIATIONS***
I listed the stats for each of the flavors of breakfast cookies with the ingredients needed for the variations given- add what I listed in ( ), omitting ingredients as noted from the basic recipe above. Winning Points followed by (WW 123)- both calculated on the Blue WW calculator from 2000, holding fiber at 4 for WP.

~Raspberry (stir in 1 cup frozen unsweetened blueberries)- WP: 3 (1), cal 200, Pro 7, Fat 1, Fiber 15, carbs 48

~Mixed berry (stir in 1 cup of assorted frozen berries)- nutritional info will vary slightly with berries used: WP 3 (1), Cal 205, Protein 7, Fat 1, Fiber 14, carbs 48

~Cherry (1/2 cup cherries unsweetened, chopped into pieces added to basic mix)- WP: 3 (1), cal 200, Pro 7, Fat 1, Fiber 15, carbs 47

~Tropical (stir in 1/3 cup crushed & drained pineapple, and 1/8 coconut (I get mine in the freezer section, lower cal/less sugar; omit fruit)- WP: 3 (2), Cal 206, Protein 7, Fat 2, Fiber 13, carbs 44

~Banana Nut (Decrease apple sauce to 1/4 cup, add 1 medium sized mashed ripe banana. Sprinkle 1/8 cup finely chopped walnuts on top.)- WP: 4 (2), cal 231, Protein 8, fat 4, fiber 13, carbs 50

~Maple walnut (omit the applesauce, & brown sugar. Add 1/3 cup real maple syrup and 1/8 cup finely chopped walnuts sprinkled on top)- WP: 4 (2), cal 213, Protein 8, fat 4, fiber 12, carbs 46

Y'all are making me want to go out and buy what ingredients I don't have to make these. I have been reading about them on other areas of the site. They sound wonderful; I will let you know what I think when I make them! Thanks!

Dear Folks,
Just had this last night at my daughter's and it is terrific.

One Pillsbury Breadsticks Roll
1/4 cup chunky applesauce SF
2 T. raisins
cinnamon

This is an inexact recipe, but I can tell you how to do it.
Separate the breadsticks into the perforated pieces.
Spread applesause on 6 of the breadsticks
Then place about 5 raisins on each.
Then sprinkle with cinnamon

At this point, take the other six breadsticks and cover the applesauced ones. In other words, put a top on the breadsticks.
Roll up like a cinnamon roll and place on ungreased sheet.
Bake in 350 degree oven for 13 minutes.

This makes 6 cinnamon rolls. they really are good.
I figure they are worth 3-3 1/2 points depending on how much fruit you use.

Default Homemade Protein cakes/cookies

I took 2 recipies from the L&S site and tweaked them to make this recipe. You must use soy protein because whey protein will break down with heat. This is the basic recipe .

1/2 cup eggbeaters
1/2 FF cottage cheese
1/2 cup uncooked oatmeal
1 scoop soy protein powder
1 Tbs cinnamon (omit for chocolate version)
1 packet Equal (or substitute)
**1 cap of vanilla extract if your protein powder is bland

Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Beat with fork or electric beater. Spray skillet with Butter flavor Pam and heat skillet to medium high. Pour batter onto the hot skillet....watch for bubbles to appear and flip to brown other side. Total recipe makes 4, 3 1/2-4" cakes or you can make smaller 2 1/2" (7-8) "cookies".

Total recipe is (depending upon your protein powder):
Calories=309
Protein= 43.25
Carb= 28
Fat= 2.75
Fiber=3
***Suggestions:
1. Place a few fresh blueberries or chopped walnuts on each cake before you flip them over. These taste great warm or cold.

2. If you're a chocolate lover you can put in 2 Tbs of "natural" cocoa powder in recipe.

3. Play with the extract: almond,banana or even S.F. jello powder (one suggestion called for adding some cherry jello to the chocolate recipe to create a "black forest cake" )

4. They refridgerate well and are good for on the go snack.

The recipe with variations was originally posted by Christine. I don't know how to pull it up here, but I did save it in my files. And this is what she posted:
