Granola Bars

Balancing classes, homework and teaching I often grab a granola bar when I'm on the run.   As much as I love the granola bars Kashi has on the market, I thought it would be fun to try and make my own.  

Not only was this recipe easy, but it was nice to modify and put what I wanted into the mix.  I chopped up some almonds, sunflower seeds, raisins and some dark chocolate chips.  Wonderful!  Pre mixed trail mix would work fine in this to save time.  

After cutting them into bars, I put the remainder in the freezer.  They keep well and are perfect to grab as a breakfast on the go or a snack.  I've also thought of crumbling a bar up and putting with some soy milk or yogurt.
