ENERGY BARS

Ingredients:
-1/3 cup chopped cashews
-1/2 cup chopped almonds
-1 cup honey
-1 ½ cups rolled oats
-1/2 cup wheat germ
-1/2 cup dried cranberries
-1/2 cup chopped dried apples
-1/2 cup chopped dried dates
-1/2 cup dried goji berries

1. Warm honey in microwave to the consistency of a thin syrup.
2. Place all the ingredients except honey and goji berries in the bowl of a food processor. Give it a few pulses and then blend while drizzling in honey until mixture binds.
3. Press into a baking dish of whatever dimensions you prefer (the larger the dish, the thinner the bars/the more bars) and spread goji berries on top (you can mix them in at the food processor stage, but they’re much prettier this way). Cover with parchment paper and press down for an even top.
4. Place in freezer for a minimum of thirty minutes. Uncover and cut into squares.

NOTE: I’ve found the best way to store these is wrapped in plastic wrap and then kept frozen. Since I usually take them on the go, they’re softened up by the time I want to eat one.
