Deluxe Overnight No-Bake Power Bar-Chocolate-dipped
1 cup rolled oats -Chocolate-dipped
1/2 cup sesame seeds, toasted and ground
1/2 cup dried apricots; chopped fine
1/2 cup raisins; chopped fine
1 cup shredded unsweetened dried coconut
1 cup almonds; blanched, chopped or sliv
1/2 cup nonfat dried milk powder
1/2 cup toasted wheat germ
2 teaspoon butter or margarine
1 cup white corn syrup or 3/4 cup honey
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup chunky peanut butter
1 teaspoon orange or lemon extract
2 teaspoon grated orange or lemon peel
12 oz chocolate chips; 2 cups
4 oz paraffin, food grade or 3/4 cup butter

Toast the sesame seeds in a frying pan for about 7 minutes, until golden, then grind coarsely. Toast the oats in a 300 degree oven in a 10 inch by 15 inch baking pan for 25 minutes, stirring to prevent scorching.
Mix the seeds, apricots, raisins, coconut, almonds, dry milk, and wheat germ; mix well. Mix hot oats into dried fruit mixture.
Butter the hot baking pan; set aside.
In the frying pan, combine corn syrup or honey and sugar; bring to a rolling boil over medium high heat and quickly stir in the peanut butter, orange extract, and orange peel. At once, pour over the oatmeal mixture and mix well.
Quickly spread in buttered pan and press into an even layer. Then cover and chill until firm, at least 4 hours or overnight.
DIPPING FOR CHOCOLATE COATING
Cut into bars about 1 1/4 by 2 1/2 inches.
Combine chocolate chips and paraffin in to top of a double boiler. Place over simmering water until melted; stir often. Turn heat to low.
Using tongs, dip 1 bar at a time into chocolate, hold over pan until it stops dripping , then place on wire racks set above waxed paper.
With paraffin, the coating firms very quickly, bars with butter in the chocolate coating may need to be chilled. When firm and cool), serve bars, or wrap individually in foil. Store in the refrigerator up to 4 weeks; freeze to store longer.
Makes about 4 dozen bars, about 1 ounce each.

ABC Protein Bars
INGREDIENTS

10 tbsp. natural peanut butter
5 egg whites
5 scoops whey protein (I find that chocolate mint tastes the best in this recipe, however chocolate tastes good as well)
2 cups oats (OPTIONAL: For flavor, I dry cook these on a frying pan until they are toasted) 1/2 cup soy milk

DIRECTIONS

Mix the peanut butter and egg whites in a bowl. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, and mix well (so that the mixture appears smooth). Repeat 4-5 times until all traces of egg whites have dissolved into the peanut butter, and your mixture is a smooth consistent one.
Gradually add the protein (one scoop at a time) and stir into the mixture. Next, add the soy milk and follow with the oats. Continue mixing until a thick 'sticky' mixture is present.

Smooth the thick mixture into a 13x9 tray and leave for 20-30 minutes. Cut into 10 equal size bars. Individually wrap each bar (I use aluminum foil) and store in the fridge.

OMG thank you sooo much! Now THAT is what I needed.....They did give her an antibotic for the ear...today she is doing better because she is complaining instead of sleeping LOL


Yup little do they know, WE know LOL

That is great, I am really not a big pusher of drugs, welll... LOL but when they know what is wrong, especially with kids, I hate when they don't do anything.

Let me know how your bars turn out! :heart:

March 29th......

Well where to begin....time lol...Im not going to eat fat with carbs...going to add some good fat in and the no carbs in the am or the pm....so these are the major things that are going to change in my diet....

Training is a whole other story...My hubby (whom I have major problems with anyway) came home last night to tell me that he was moved to afternoons. Okay....that is from 2:30 -10:30...So all my training is going to have to happen in the day now unless I take the kids to the gym and stick them in child care which is still a option. he won't see the kids except in the am and I will be with them all night and doing all the homework, sports...ect....So my training will have to fit around all of this...which is still really possible. The pool opens at 6:30am...lol...OH and the other thing is I have to work days now.....I guess the good thing is that he has a job still

So I am a little stressed out...but anything is workable... to life at the moment....

But I did make some promises yesterday that I will stick to......

Hmmm....my quads are sore...must have been the combo running hills and then biking......I don't usually hurt there...so something must have been working different..that is a good thing! Not sure about training today.

March 31th

Rest day lol...Im going to try to buy some weights..15# just so I can start doing some weights at home when I can't get to the gym. Must have been the good lookin guy that has me eating so well LOL...

Oh and I found this last night about Bricks...which I have done twice this week:

A brick is usually a bike/run combo. This simulates the bike to run transition - many think is the toughest part of the race. It should be done during your final training phase leading up to a race. A brick simulates the bike-to-run transition. It's wiggy. Have you ever had your leg go to sleep on you? You can move it ok but you don't feel like it's part of you. Really. It's like running on rubber pegs or running with a ball and chain attached to them.

Bricks are usually demanding on your body - don't make them routine. Definitely plan on doing 2-3 bricks during your final lead-up to your triathlon. When doing these bricks, you don't have to run your best time - go easy. I wouldn't even do your full miles. What might also work during your last several weeks to a month is to maybe do an easy mile of running after every bike ride.

Also, at the end of the bike leg, lower your gear and increase your pedal revolutions to loosen muscles tightened by pushing big gears.


Could this be why I hurt LOL
