Motivate Monday: Eat right, Eat Clean - 3pm Snack Alternative

What you put in your mouth important. I snack on muesli bars at work and I had an idea of making my own, so we had no hidden nasties! Looking for a recipe was a challenge, I couldn't find anything that was quite like what i wanted.  So after several attempts I believe (and the staff in my office agree) I have mastered the recipe. I thought i would share it with you today so that you can also have a crack at my Muesli Bar Muffins.

What you will need:
1 cup of cooked Quinoa
2 cups Rolled Oats
