Some of my favorite things to eat as a snack are Homemade Granola, Homemade Salsa with chips, and granola bars. As a kid I LOVED Quarker chewy granola bars. They were like a dessert! If you love them as much as I do then you have to try these No Bake Chocolate Chip Granola Bars. They taste just like it and you can make them for a fraction of the price.
My oldest just started pre-K this month and she already seems so much older! She loves it! She is such a social butterfly and after moving away from all her friends in Omaha, starting school to make new friends was a necessity. During the summer she often said she wanted to go back to Omaha but now she tells me that she wants to stay in New York.
Anyway, even though her class is only 2 1/2 hours long, they have snack time so I’ve been sending her with snacks from apples to a bag of pretzels to these yummy granola bars we made together.
These babies just take six simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand– quick oats, rice cereal, brown sugar, honey, butter, and chocolate chips. Plus, they are super quick to make. Just cook the sugar, honey, and butter over the stove, pour it over the oats and cereal and then press it into a pan. Sprinkle on the chocolate chips and press them down in and you’re done!
They’re so simple to make, a child could do it! Don’t just have your kid pack his own lunch, have him help make the food with you.
I’m thinking I need to make a peanut butter version of these babies, don’t ya think?
