What’s this all about?
We love whole grains! We have found that we prefer their flavor. They are also far healthier than the refined foods which characterize the typical modern diet.
Switching to whole grains helps maintain a low glycemic diet. That means you will have more sustainable energy levels throughout the day, and probably fewer problems with weight control.
We created this website with one goal: to build an online community of like-minded people who either share our enthusiasm about whole grains or just want to learn more about them.

Don’t ever go grocery shopping when you’re hungry. Ever hear that one? Here’s another one for you – don’t ever concoct an energy bar recipe when you are jonesing for chocolate. Or perhaps it should be… only concoct your energy bar recipes while jonesing for chocolate. I’ll let you decide… That’s the predicament I found myself in this weekend when, having just finished the end of last week’s batch of energy bars, I entered the kitchen determined to create a crossover energy bar/baked chocolate chip indulgence type treat. I wanted something with plenty of texture and flavor; a tasty snack that would be simultaneously nutrient-rich and delicious. It is so yummy that I consumed the entire batch in just three days. I wouldn’t be doing my due diligence if I didn’t take the time to fully evaluate the fruit of my labor before sharing it with you, now would I? My final analysis… I’ll be baking some more tomorrow. They are definitely more treat than energy bar, which is why I classified them as a cookie. It may be the best of both worlds, but the amount of chocolate tilted the scale in that direction. The flavor is pure indulgence. The ingredient list should alleviate some of the guilt you may feel though. Just resist the temptation to eat them all at once.
