Fruit & Honey Bars


So I was flipping through a weight watchers magazine that mysteriously showed up in my mailbox, (really, I didn’t order it, maybe someone is trying to tell me something), and I found an interesting recipe for fruit and honey bars. I changed things up a bit and added a couple things and this is what I came up with. These are very versatile, you could really use what ever kind of fruit and nuts you like; in the first batch I used dried apricots instead of pineapple and didn’t use the pecans or cashews. These little guys are low in calories, and sweetened only with natural honey. The nuts in the bar have so many benefits to your health, like heart healthy omega-3 fatty acids, and the dried fruit are full of fiber, vitamin C, and antioxidants. Keep in mind that when buying your ingredients to stick to unsweetened fruits and unsalted nuts to keep the calories and sodium down. Enjoy.
