J went on a 10 day fast called the Daniel Fast. I was supposed to support him by eating a whole foods diet, but after that first morning I felt sick as a dog and rushed off to Burger King for a Whopper Jr., fries and Coke, lol.
Even though I failed miserably, the experience was wonderful for our family. As a result of the fast, I prayed daily for my husband's success, gave my children more fruits and veggies, and tried new whole foods products. Who knew the kids would love organic brown rice cakes w/honey? I am so thankful for my husband's godly leadership!
Anyway, here's Tam's famous Crockpot Granola recipe. I made some Wednesday, and we're having it for breakfast this morning.
5 cups of oats (not quick cooking)
1/2 cup of oil
1/2 cup of honey
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
1 cup coconut
Cook on low for 5 hours or until brown, stiring occasionally. The more you stir, the finer the consistency. ***Make sure you keep the cover cracked on the crockpot.***
You can serve it with milk, yogurt, fruit, etc. I usually sprinkle a few chocolate chips on mine. You can also make granola bars.
Granola Bars
Preheat oven to 350. Combine 2 beaten eggs wih 2 cups of crockpot granola. You can also add dried fruit and nuts (or some chocolate chips) in the 2 cup count.
Place in lightly greased 8x8 pan. Bake for 15 minutes. Cut into bars. Cool.

One of my loved ones recently did this fast!
Thanks for the granola bar recipe...I've got to remember that. It's a lot simpler than mine.
