Renee's second Children's Day prep

Her first children's day celebration was held at MFS when she attended her playgroup class.

We made some cookies for the kids, if I remembered correctly. Most of the time, we only baked cookies during Teacher's Day or Children's Day.

This year, her new school called for healthy snacks for potluck. Usually, they would ask me for hotdogs.... They had a few parties and they often asked me for hotdogs... Which is not exactly a healthy snack.

This time, I decided to make some granola bites for the kids and teachers ^^

I love granola bars, specially those with frosting. As this would be my first attempt of making some granola bars in my kitchen, I decided to settle with the easiest recipe to avoid disappointment. (Partly because there's only a few days to try) my fallback plan would be off the shelf granola bars...

I improvised a variety of nuts/seeds but keeping as closely to the recipe's call. However, the amount of wet mixture wasn't sufficient to hold the dry ingredients together because I grounded the nuts and seeds, instead of keeping them in chunks. Why so? Because some kids won't eat it if they see chunks... I thought.


So here's my very first yucky-looking granola block which was later divided into squares of bite size to cater for the class. Though it looked yucky... It tasted so yummy, So chewy, so delicious!

Will let the girls have some for breakfast tmr morning... If they love it, I will love to make more in the future, in chunks of nuts instead of grounded form for more texture. 

Hope it sit and set well in another 2 days for the morning party!!
