Banana Oatmeal Squares
This recipe is a favorite in our house. Not only is it portable, but it's packed with good-for-you ingredients. And and best of all? No sugar! It's a great breakfast or snack for the whole family and perfect for those days when everyone is crazed because it can be eaten on-the-go.
