Energy Bars
Combine and set aside
3 cups puffed whole grain cereal
1 cup pecans
1/2 cup chopped dried fruit (cherries, pineapple, or blueberries, etc.)
Place in sauce pan and bring to boil
1/2 cup chopped pitted dates
1/2 cup ground raisins
1/2 cup peanut butter or almond butter
1/4 cup ground flax seed
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup agave syrup
Remove from heat and combine with other ingredients. Press into a 9 x 9 pan (I use a tart pan lined with wax paper, place another piece of wax paper over the mix and roll it out with a pastry roller), allow to cool and cut into bars.
