Recipe
Preheat oven to 375� . Spread sesame seeds, oats, granola and Rice Crispies evenly in a jellyroll pan. Toast for 13 minutes, stirring every 4 minutes for even cooking.
While that�s toasting, put raisins and dried fruit (chopped) into a big bowl and toss in the wheat germ and protein, using your hands to mix the ingredients evenly. Spray the empty jellyroll pan with non-stick cooking spray, and set aside.
Over medium heat, bring the sugar and corn syrup to a boil. Reduce heat and mix in the peanut butter, vanilla, almond and cinnamon.
Quickly dump the mixture into the jellyroll pan, pressing it down with a damp spatula or pyrex. The quicker you do it, the easier it will be. Chill overnight or for 5 hours. Wrap in foil or layer them in a Tupperware casserole separated by wax paper. Refrigerate for up to 3 weeks or freeze for up to a year in an air-tight container.
