By the way this is the Breakfast Bar recipe:
* 1 x 397g can condensed milk
* 250g rolled oats (not instant)
* 75g shredded coconut
* 100g dried cranberries
* 125g mixed seeds (pumpkin, sunflower, sesame)
* 125g natural unsalted peanuts
1. Preheat the oven to 130°C/gas mark 1/2, and oil a 23 x 33 x 4cm baking tin, or use a throwaway foil one.
2. Warm the condensed milk in a large pan.
3. Meanwhile, mix together all the other ingredients and then add the warmed condensed milk, using a rubber or wooden spatula to fold and distribute.
4. Spread the mixture into the tin and press down with the spatula or, better still, your hands (wearing disposable vinyl gloves to stop you sticking), to even the surface.
5. Bake for 1 hour, then remove from the oven and, after about 15 minutes, cut into four across, and four down to make 16 chunky bars. Let cool completely.
Last time I made them I just chucked in anything I had to hand - ended up with lots of mixed dried fruit (apricot, fig, pineapple and pear), no coconut and just sunflower seeds. The condensed milk means they aren't exactly healthy though!
rjean, my lunches are always pretty boring!

they almost always consist of a bagel with cream cheese or hummus, an apple and/or a yoghurt of some kind.
