Sorry, I was going to look and forgot about it, is this it?
Granola
This isn't super low in carbs, and it's really more for eating during
maintenance than during weight loss. But it's far lower in carbs that
standard granola, high in protein, very filling, and best of all, it tastes
like real cereal!
2-1/2 cups rolled oats
3/4 cup sunflower seeds
3/4 cup sesame seeds
2/3 cup wheat germ
3/4 cup flaked, unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup slivered almonds
1/2 cup wheat bran
1/4 cup flaxseeds
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup Splenda
3/4 cup vanilla flavored whey protein powder
1/4 teasoon blackstrap molasses
1/2 cup canola oil
1. Preheat the oven to 250º F.
2. In a large, shallow roasting pan, combine the rolled oats, sunflowers
seeds, sesame seeds, wheat germ, coconut, walnuts, almonds, wheat bran,
flaxseeds, cinnamon, Splenda and protein powder, mixing them well.
3. Stir the molasses into the canola oil; it won't really blend with it,
but it will help the molasses get distributed evenly. Pour the mixture over
the dry ingredients and stir until it's uniformly distributed.
4. Place in the oven and toast for an hour, stirring once or twice. Store
in a tightly covered container. Serve topped with cream or half-and-half.
Yield: Makes about 16 servings of 1/2 cup, each with 21.8 grams of
carbohydrate and 6 grams of fiber, for a total of 15.8 grams of usable carbs
and 11.6 grams of protein.
