Oatmeal Peanut Butter Bars Chocolate Optional Recipe


Oatmeal Peanut Butter Bars  Chocolate Optional Recipe
OK so this one is for kids of all ages unlike the Oatmeal Drink recipe for adults. Healthy, lots of fiber and of course peanut butter and chocolate. This recipe is from a hand scribbled note a friend gave me at a conference a few months ago.

Bill, Chocolate is never optional. This recipe actually has oatmeal in it.


This sounds like a good breakfast bar. Thanks!


My daughter doesn't know it yet, but she has a new hero. Loves peanut butter anything. Thanks for the post!
