I had this box of cereal on hand and a lot of apples so I came up with this recipe. My kids love these bars. And they are only about 1 1/2 carbs per serving.

This is so delicious and full of protein. I love to eat it before or after working out. I normally wrap these bars in a cling wrap if I want to take it with me. It totally beats any trail mix bar you've ever had!

Single Serving Mixed Fruit/Yogurt Smoothie
Very Good 4.4/5

Editor's note: Use your favorite milk or yogurt in this recipe. Use ice cubes instead of water for a frozen treat.

Most of the smoothie recipes I've seen are for 3-6 servings. This is a good smoothie for just 1 person. It can be made with a stick blender instead of getting the big one dirty for just one drink!

Very Good 4.5/5

These healthy breakfast bars provide a respectable level of protein and fiber without a ton of calories. Best of all, they can be eaten on the run. Reconfigure the "additions" to suit your fancy.... or replace the Splenda with another sweetener if you're trying to stay "au natural." This is a base recipe that can be tweaked to your taste!
