RECIPES for the FRUGAL and HAPPY

Crockpot Granola (recipe from my bff Kelly:)

5 cups oats
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup honey
tsp cinnamon (or other spice if you like)
(after cooking add any of the following: coconut or other nuts, sunflower seeds, raisins or other dried fruit, chocolate or carob chips, or use your imagination. I double this for my big crockpot.)

Mix well and cook on low in a crockpot for 5 hours with the lid cracked (I leave my wooden spoon in mine), stirring occasionally.

You can also bake at 375 for 10 minutes, or until brown. Cool and store in airtight container.

You can make bars by mixing 2 cups of granola with 2 eggs and baking in a lightly greased 8X8 pan.
