Breakfast Bars

[Guest guest]

Dawn:

Thank God, I'm not the only one who had to dump the results in the garbage.

My son was

addicted to the Nutri-Grain breakfast bars, so I was thrilled to see the

recipe in Miss Robsen's. Mine were a disaster -- extremely gooey -- even

though I cooked them longer than the recipe called for. The didn't look or

taste anything remotely like breakfast bars. My son wouldn't even venture a

taste, and I don't blame him. I tasted it and while it wasn't awful, it was

gooey and rich. The entire thing went in the trash.

On the other hand, I just ordered some GFCF " fig " breakfast bars from a

company in California -- I don't have the name handy right now. According

to the sales person, they are the idential shape and style as the

Nutri-grain bars. My son used to like Fig Newtons (before we went GFCF), so

I thought I'd give them a try. I'll let you know how they taste and whether

he likes them. I urged them to make strawberry and blueberry and she told

me she'd pass the request on.

I would love to get the address/e-mail whatever for the fig bars you're

ordering from California. My sons also loved breakfast bars and I've

always wondered why some company didn't make a version that was GFCF. I

would also love a GFCF type of goldfish cracker, oreos, animal crackers,

graham cracker, etc., but haven't found one yet. I've found decent

substitutes, but not quite the same thing.
