I'm sure I'm not the only person to think of this, but when I get served french fries at bars/restaurants, I take the lid off the pepper shaker, and pour pepper into my ketchup. Just sprinkling it on the fries doesn't get it to stick. Pepper ketchup. Problem solved.

Here is the power bar recipe as printed. It comes from www.101cookbooks.com/archives/video-big-sur-power-bars-recipe.html, and there is a video there if that would be helpful. If you can't find crisp brown rice cereal (I couldn't last time) you can just use rice krispies. I used a generic last time. I also omitted the coconut since HG doesn't like it, and used some other nut besides pecans. I can't remember which. I also added some flax seeds and toasted them with the oats and nuts. And finally, I added dried cranberries and dried, chopped apricots. Oh and I have regular kosher salt, I think I just used a little, I don't really use very much salt usually. So, really, this is highly customizable and if you just stick to the base of oats and rice cereal, you can add any nut or fruit or whatever. I really like the addition of ground espresso. I made two batches last year and the jar of rice syrup was just about the right amount for both. One batch ended up having slightly less than a cup of it, and I kind of liked that one better. Most of this stuff can be found in the bulk aisle at the store so you can just get what you need and they are not very expensive to make. 1 tablespoon coconut oil (or regular butter) 1 cup pecans, chopped 1 cup slivered almonds 2/3 cup (unsweetened) shredded coconut 1 1/4 cups rolled oats 1 1/2 cups unsweetened crisp brown rice cereal 1 cup brown rice syrup 1/4 cup natural cane sugar 1/2 teaspoon fine-grain sea salt 2 tablespoons ground espresso beans 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a baking pan with the coconut oil. If you like thick power bars, opt for an 8 by 8-inch pan; for thinner bars, use a 9 by 13-inch pan. On a rimmed baking sheet toast the pecans, almonds, and coconut for about 7 minutes, or until the coconut is deeply golden. Toss once or twice along the way. Mix the oats, toasted nuts, coconut, and the cereal, together in a large bowl and set aside. Combine the rice syrup, sugar, salt, espresso, and vanilla in a small saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly as it comes to a boil and thickens just a bit, about 4 minutes. Pour the syrup over the oat mixture and stir until it is evenly incorporated. Spread into the prepared pan and cool to room temperature before cutting into whatever size bars you desire. Makes 16 to 24 bars. |

I always think this Gorillaz song is a Magnetic Fields song until Albarn starts singing.

Oh is that who this is? Sounds like a Tom Petty song. I like it.
