So a new convert to clean eating (yay!) Ms. Kylie has decided to make the change but since she is a nanny and they are leaving for the Carolinas this morning she needs some snacks and meal options while there. I went with her yesterday to Fresh Market an picked up some delish dried okra and fruit. Before i left her i gave her these Clean bars that i advised her to eat after her morning run. I also gave her some protein powder also. These bars are just amazing. Perfect for hiking and lake trips.

Recipe
1/2 cup dried apricots
1/2 cup dried blueberries
1/2 cup dried crasins
1 cup oats
1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds
1/2 cup raw almonds
1/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup toasted wheat germ
1/2 cup nonfat dry milk
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
2 large eggs

*Preheat oven to 350 and coat 9x13 baking pan with cooking spray. Place all ingredients except the maple syrup & eggs in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add liquids to the mixture and stir until well combined. It will be like a coarse paste. Transfer to baking pan, bake until lightly browned about 20mins. Let cool for about 15min then cut into about 24 bars.
