CHEWY GRANOLA BARS
I "borrowed" this recipe from the kitchen at my college because I fell in love with these bars. They are so much better than store-bought, and you can add or subtract ingredients as you wish. They make a perfect on-the-go snack; a much healthier alternative to chips or cookies, especially for kids (Great for lunch boxes!)

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh honey, oats, and nuts will give your granola bars the best flavor and texture.
- Don't overcook the granola: The granola should be golden brown and slightly crispy, but not hard. If you overcook it, it will be dry and crumbly.
- Let the granola cool completely before cutting it into bars: This will help the bars to hold their shape.
- Store the granola bars in an airtight container: This will keep them fresh for up to 2 weeks.
- Get creative with your ingredients: You can add different nuts, seeds, dried fruits, or spices to your granola bars to create different flavor combinations.
