Home Made Granola Protien Bars and Cinnamon Citrus Banana Chips

Make granola from cereal instead of buying all the ingredients individually. This box of granola cereal cost me about 3.50 and will yeild you about a dozen granola bars (or more if you cut them smaller). The same price might get you 4-6 bars in a box. This is pretty quick and easy, why not give it a try?
These are delicious and have all sorts of protein in them: whole grains, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, almonds and more.

Home Made Granola Protein Bars

1 box  Post Great Grains cereal 

1 cup honey

2 tablespoons natural peanut butter

1 bar of dark chocolate , melted

Spread cereal thinly on a large cookie sheet, bake at 350 for about 10 minutes, until toasted. 

Put honey and peanut butter in a bowl and microwave 15 seconds or until warm enough to mix. 

Dump toasted cereal in a big bowl, mix in honey mixture until incorporated into all the cereal.

Line a cookie sheet with parchment and spread mixture into the pan. Cook at 350 for about 10 more minutes, then take it out and let cool for about 30 minutes. 

Cut, brush with melted chocolate (optional). 

Banana chips! SO CHEAP! SO YUMMY! I made about a cup of banana chips from one banana.

These guys are pretty expensive in the store, but cost practically nothing to make at home.

Lemon juice keeps them from getting brown and the cinnamon makes a great flavor with banana (leave it out if you dont like it though).

Cinnamon Citrus Banana Chips

1 Banana

1 tsp cinnamon

Small Pinch of salt

1-2 tablespoons Lemon Juice

Slice banana thinly, about 1/8", not thick, but not see-through-thin.

Lay out each piece on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Mix lemon juice, salt and cinnamon and brush on each banana slice. 

Bake in a 200 degree oven for 2 hours or until they're hard. Let cool and store in a container.
