No Bake Granola
Granola Bars can be tricky since they are packed with either lots of nuts or lots of sugar. Also theres so many now a days that has added artificial sugars in it, YUCK. I wanted to make a granola bar that is simple and an easy grab and go. These would be a good pre workout snack or a mid hike snack on the go. These need to be stored in the fridge as they wont do so well in the heat.
