Cooking Cheap Snacks 101: Granola Bars

Tag: cookingScott Wegner @ 9:34 pm

Tonight Stacy and I decided to make our own granola bars, and they turned out pretty darn good.  I had been wanting to try making them for a while now, and finally got around to it.  It’s a great snack to make because it’s relatively easy to make, pretty healthy, you can throw in whatever you want, and really cheap.  We made a 9″ x 13″ tray of granola bars for around $5 in ingredients (not to mention they were mostly organic).  And the best part, is they’re delicious.  We’re talking:

  • Rolled Oats
  • Flour
  • Brown Sugar
  • Raisins
  • Chocolate Chips
  • Walnuts
  • Almonds
  • Honey
  • Sunflower Seeds
  • Vanilla
  • Salt, canola oil, etc.

I mean, it sounds great, doesn’t it?  And now I have snacks for the next couple weeks– cool.  I can’t wait to make it again, there’s already a few other things I want to try (namely, peanut butter, mmmm).

Does anybody else have a tasty they like to make?  Or perhaps the missing ingredient to my nearly-perfect granola bars?  Let’s hear it in the comments.
