Granola Bars

I decided to try another Pinterest idea today! I can't wait to try these easy, no bake granola bars!!
Recipe:
1/2 stick unsalted butter
1/4 c honey
1/4 c light brown sugar
2 cups plain granola
1 c rice krispies
Your choice of chocolate chips or peanut butter chips

Heat butter and honey in a pan. Add brown sugar as butter starts to melt. Bring to boil and turn down to med/low heat until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and add granola and rice krispies until evenly coated. Place mixture into 2 9x5 pans lined with foil and let set at room temperature for 15-20 minutes!!
I can't wait to dig in!! :))

The Best Onion Rings!!!

I have recently tried this recipe for homemade onion rings and they were the BEST I have ever had!!! I hope you can see the picture but just in case you can't I will list the ingredients.
Recipe:
2 large sweet onions
2 1/2 c buttermilk
2 eggs
3 TBS water
1 3/4 c all purpose flour
2 tsp salt
2 tsp chili powder
1-2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp ground cumin
oil to fry
You cut the onions into rings and let them soak in the buttermilk for about 30 minutes. Once they are done soaking you drain the buttermilk and dip into the egg and water mixture and then into the dry mixture. The dry mixture consists of the flour and all spices. I deep fried mine in our fryer but you could put oil in a pan and cook until they are a golden brown. Your oil should be at 375. This was an easy recipe to follow. I was nervous at first because I thought it would be harder but I was very surprised at how easy it was. You have to try it sometime!!! :)
