Goooood morning! Or good afternoon, or good middle of the night, because this yummy snack can be enjoyed any time of the day.
You'll need:

-3/4 cups of your favorite trail mix (sans M&Ms)
-4 tbsp honey
-1/4 cup coconut flakes
-1.5 cups almond butter
Preheat oven to 300 F. Melt the almond butter in the microwave, it takes about 30-40 seconds. Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl, and then transfer to an oiled pan or baking sheet. Cook for 30-35 minutes.

Warm Turmeric Hummus
You'll need:
-2.5 cups boiling water
1.5 cups dried garbanzo beans, rinsed
-3/4 tbsp turmeric
-1.5 tbsp tahini
-1 lemon
-2 tbsp olive oil
-1 tbsp red pepper flakes
-salt n' peppa
Add beans and turmeric to boiling water. Bring to simmer, and cook for 1-2 hours. Drain beans, and place in food processor. Add tahini, lemon, olive oil, pepper flakes, and s&p (all to taste!) I find that this tasty treat is yummiest when warm, and tastes wonderful rolled in spinach leaves, with any other raw veggie like carrots or celery, and of course with fresh pita or naan. MMMMM. Dip up!
