"These are excellent for lunch boxes, I made these to last the week but they were that good they only lasted 2 days. I used Organic Rolled Oats for the recipe but found that I needed to make up half the mixture again, the receipt advises to place half the mixture in the tray, but there was not enough. Extra cooking time was not required."
