Bird Seed Energy Bars
Amy E.
"These bars are full of crunchy seeds, wheat germ, and rolled oats for fiber, and protein. Since they keep in the freezer for months, I love to grab them straight from the freezer and pack them for snacks on the ski hill."

These came out tasting good, but they crumbled apart and were very dry when I tried to get them out of the pan.
