Welcome to my food adventures!

I have recently decided to put my obscene love of food to some use. Now family and friends can keep up with me as I explore different kinds of food - at home, at restaurants, in other countries, etc.! I really do find that I associate lots of great memories with the food I eat. So this is as much a project for myself as it is for my friends and family. Enjoy! Hope some of it makes you hungry :)

Home made granola


This wasn't fancy by any means but it was *very* delicious and filling. Makes the perfect snack! I can't wait to make this again because I didn't have all the proper materials on the first try. Here's what I used: raw oats, apple slices, crushed pecans, banana slices and peanut butter. I mixed it all together in a bowl, then sprinkled a little water and spread it over over the pan. I think all in all I had it in the oven for 20 minutes or so, but that's probably just because I put water in the mix.

Next time I'll be using honey and cinnamon instead of peanut butter! :)

This recipe was inspired by my friend Thomas, who brought his own granola to school one day. This lasted me a few days. I would suggest it to anyone who loves granola and likes to get creative with snack food!
