Goal #72 Try 100 new recipes: Lara Bars (50/100)

My friend Kristy introduced me to Lara bars--whole food granola bars that are made primarily with nuts and dates. They're delicious...but costly. THEN she told me you could make your own for much less money!

I tried this recipe for Pecan Pie Lara Bars. Only 3 ingredient! Almonds, pecans, and dates! I used my VitaMix to blend it, but it just about killed it. Or it killed the circuit breaker. I'm not sure. But I couldn't use my VitaMix for a full day after that. I'm kind of scared to make more!

But they were delicious! 4.5/5 stars. Minus .5 because they were kind of crumbly. I'd want them to stick together more like they did in the recipe's picture (below).
