I must say I love Ina Garten, of the Barefoot Contessa cookbooks and Food Network TV show. She brings such casual ease to cooking and always uses simple and fresh ingredients. I can across her recipe for granola bars and decided to tweak it a bit after reading reviews and adding my own touches.
Never feel that you have to stick to a granola bar recipe and add all the ingredients listed, you can add anything you like. Go ahead and add chocolate chips, dried cranberries, pecans, whatever you have in your cupboards can be tossed in. They can be as plain as you like or chock full.....
