Granola Bars

Great for school lunches or a snack at home. You can load them up with whatever goodness you like! 

½ c. margarine or butter

1 c. brown sugar

2 TBSP honey

½ tsp. vanilla

1 egg

1 c. whole wheat flour

½ tsp. cinnamon

½ tsp. baking powder

1 ½ c. rolled oats

1 ¼  c. Rice Krispies (you could probably skip this and use more oats but I've never tried it)

1 c. nuts/sunflower seeds (optional)

1 c. raisins/chocolate chips

EXTRAS: 1 c. of dried fruit, coconut, sliced almonds, mini M&M’s, white chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, etc.  Anything pretty much goes!
