Recipes

Baked Oatmeal


2 cups oats (I use whole, not quick)
1 cup dried fruit 
handful of nuts
dash of salt
cinnamon as desired 
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup of brown sugar (or honey)


Toss dry ingredients in a bowl.  In separate bowl or large measuring cup:
2 cups milk 
2 T melted butter (opt)
1 T vanilla
1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
2 eggs


Whisk together and stir into dry ingredients; in bottom of 8X8 greased pan, slice a whole banana, then sprinkle fresh or frozen blueberries on top of that.  Pour oatmeal mixture on next, smooth out and bake at 350' for 35-40 minutes.

Crunchy Roasted Chickpeas

2 cans cooked chickpeas (also called garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
olive oil
seasonings to taste (I used sea salt and garlic powder)


Rinse & drain chickpeas, pat dry with a paper towel then toss in a ziploc bag with 1-2 T olive oil and seasonings.  I used about 1 teaspoon of sea salt and about 1 tablespoon of garlic powder.  Toss well to coat, spread on baking pan and bake in a 400* oven for 30-40 minutes.  Toss gently on pan every 10 minutes or so, and let cool when done baking.  They'll crunch up even more when cool.  Store in a dry, airtight container.
