Ingredients

cup unsalted butter

4 1/2 cups marshmallows

1 cup old fashioned oats

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/2 cup flax seed

1/2 cup sliced almonds

1/4 cup unsweetened coconut

1/2 cup peanut butter chips

Preparation

In a large saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows to melt, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. In another bowl have all other ingredients mixed together, pour into melted mixture until coated (you'll need to move quickly, as it will harden).

Press mixture into greased 8x8 pan, with buttered fingers to prevent sticking. Let mixture cool and cut into bars. Keep covered or wrap individually with plastic wrap for easy carrying.

These bars can be changed by adding chocolate chips, other types of nuts, dried fruit, etc.
