    Granola Bars full of healthy ingredients. This is an old recipe which I made my children. In the 70's bulk food and granola were becoming popular, granola was not on the shelves at that time. This makes enough to have also make Peanut Butter Bars. 2007-2014 Netta Belle's Choice cookbookinabox "Reg. U.S. Pat. & Trdmk. Off." All rights reserved.
