Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1/2 c. honey or corn syrup (i use 1/4 of each)
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. peanut butter
2 c. quick oats
2 c. Rice Krispy cereal
1/4 c. ground flax seed

Directions:
Directions:
In a small sauce pan mix honey (or corn syrup) and brown sugar. Cook over medium- high heat until sugar is completely dissolved- stirring constantly. Remove from heat and quickly stir in peanut butter. Mix in oats, cereal, flax seed, and optional wheat germ in a large bowl. Pour honey mixture over dry ingredients- mix well. Stir in chocolate chips, nuts, fruit, and any other mix- ins.
Press mixture in a 9x 13' pan that has been greased or lined with wax paper. Works great if I put another wax paper on top and press down with a measuring cup. Cut bars and store in an air- tight container. I cut mine into 24 bars that were about1' by 4' (8 rows by 3 rows). Pastry cutter/scraper works well. Thes freeze well!
