Granola Bars (using Rice Krispies)
Newsgroup posting by Maven5678 (1996)
Here is a terrific recipe that I came up with, based on the idea of Rice Krispie treats. IT's low in fat, and low in calories compared to other granola bars.
Melt:
1 big package of marshmallows
with:
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon cinnamon
Stir in:
2 cups rice krispies
1 cup dry rolled oats
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup dried fruit that you like
some nuts (optional, raises calories and fat, as I'm sure you know).
Mix it around really well, then press with non-stick spatula or wax paper into a baking dish. Allow to cool completely then cut it up and enjoy!! On average the calories are about 150, depending on the size.
