Honey Crunch Energy Bars with Wheat Germ

We’ve created a delicious energy bar you can wrap and take with
you to eat before a workout, on a long bike ride or for a boost
after a run. Energy bars don’t need to come in packages to be
good for you. Make a batch and freeze bars in individual baggies
so you can use them as you need them.
