Granola Bars

I'm going to try the Pioneer Woman's granola bar recipe at some point.  I like the use of molasses and wheat germ in these.  My variations will be apricot cashew, raisin cinnamon pecan, and cherry almond (maybe with coconut).  I will likely add pumpkin seeds and split the wheat germ with flax seed meal.

Banana, Coffee, Cashew, Cocoa Smoothie

This one sounds like a winner!  Dates are actually quite great.  I have almost all these ingredients on hand, including the best cocoa I've ever found -- Callebaut from Belgium.  There is some evening prep, but it seems easy enough.  I'll post what I think of this after I try it.
