A simple & healthier snack option for kids & grown ups!
Easy, Chewy Granola Bars
1/3 Cup Margarine
10 oz. Mini-Marshmallows
4 Cups Rice Krispy Cereal
2 Cups Quick Oats
Optional – raisins, dried cranberries, chocolate chips
Directions
1. Melt margarine & marshmallows over low heat until melted.
2. Remove from heat & add Rice Krispies cereal & oats.
3. Add any desired fruits – such as raisins
4. Spread in a 9x13” pan – greased with margarine, use waxed paper to pat down without sticking.
5. Sprinkle chocolate chips on top (I prefer the mini-chocolate chips). Allow to cool & cut into serving size pieces.
Makes about 24 servings / 105 Calories each – unless fruit or chocolate is added. This is a quick, low cost snack with fiber!

ReplyDeleteThese look really simple. I think I will try baking some this weekend with my kids. I wonder how many will survive until Mondays lunchbox?!
ReplyDeleteYum- my kids would love these!
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing! :) i should try making these - i can't buy store granola bars bc they always have peanut warnings. (my daughter is allergic and many of the peanut free ones from the health food store, well, dont taste very good, lol).
