Blueberry-Oat Popcorn Bars


Here is a great popcorn bar recipe that you can wrap and put in those brown bag lunches. Don't buy those snack bars in the market when you can make your own and know they are healthier and fresher! Santa might even enjoy one of these as a break from cookies on Christmas eve. ;)

Ingredients:
8 cups popped white popcorn
1 cup coarsely chopped dry-roasted peanuts
1 (5 ounce) package dried blueberries
2 cups uncooked quick oats
4 cups miniature marshmallows
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1/2 cup honey
Cooking spray

In a large bowl, combine popcorn, peanuts, berries and oats.

In a large saucepan, melt marshmallows, butter and honey over medium-high heat.

Pour marshmallow mixture over popcorn mixture and stir until completely coated.

Spray a 9 x 13-inch pan with cooking spray and press popcorn mixture into pan. Refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.

Cut into bars. Store in an airtight container.

Serves 18 depending on size of bars.
