Oatmeal Raisin Protein Bites

I had some vanilla protein powder that I was looking for a way to use because it had been sitting neglected on the shelf for a while. So, of course I went to Pinterest and started looking for protein powder recipes. It’s hot as Hades 

Cinnamon Raisin Baked Oatmeal

Cinnamon Raisin Baked Oatmeal

We’ve been alternating between Budget Bytes pumpkin baked oatmeal and the banana baked oatmeal. I’m ready for a different flavor and I remembered the abundance of raisins we found while cleaning the cabinets. And the half-eaten jar of applesauce in the fridge. My kids didn’t 

Oatmeal Raisin Energy Balls

Peanut Butter Date Bars

Peanut Butter Date Bars

I somehow managed to open two boxes of puffed brown rice and one is nearing its expiration date. And with two perpetually hungry kids, we always need snacks. I’ve been making this recipe from Minimalist Baker’s cookbook for a while now, with my own modifications. 

Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal

Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal

I don’t know about you, but I can eat pumpkin year-round. There were a couple of cans of pumpkin that were nearing their expiration dates and I don’t care that it’s August. I found the recipe in the Budget Bytes book and she calls it
