It's a plastic box with dividers in it.
Now i'm wondering in any of you have made raw bars that you would like to share the recipes?
I remember Rice treats and am glad that there are raw alternatives:)

I do not know of any that do not need dehydrating.
Could you use this thing in the dehydrator.

You could use it to make chocolate bars.

Ha! Didn't know there was such a thing! Interesting!
I'd suggest like RPs brownies, Alissa's fudge balls? Any of the "cookie" recipes would work, I'm sure...

I will look for bar recipes on the search, nice suggestions about the brownies and all.
Thanks.

When I gear up with more hiking/biking etc in the colder weather later this year, I'm going to experiment with making my own Larabars.
I can see NO reason why those should cost so much. Especially if they're buying their nuts/dates in bulk.
Anyways:
I think I'm going to look for the box thing you're talking about, as I like my raw foods to look uniform and pretty :) Imagine all of the stacked raw/dehydrated bars you could make! a layer of this, a layer of that...if you'd press it evenly, they would come out looking like magic.

(Speaking of rice Krispies, are there any airy, sugary cruncy raw recipes? I've been wanting a Rice Krispies treat :eek:

SRD - it's called convenience. Yep, even the raw food world there are those conveniences. Most folks wouldn't go to the (so-called) trouble to make their own bars.

For my big bike ride I make green smoothie fruit roll ups. Someone had posted that by mistake she had dripped some of her GS on a teflex sheet and just went ahead and dehydrated it with whatever she was dehydrating. I was wondering how I could incorporate GS's into my ride. I made them extra strong and made the roll-ups, then cut them into bite size pieces, small enough to fit into a baggie in my jersey pocket. They were great!

I'm going to look through the raw bars recipes here and try to come up with something lite and crunchy and when i do i will post it.
You never know what you will find at the thrift stores, many time unopened sometimes not but it's still a treat to find things you can use:)

Oh, please do! I'll be interested in any good bar recipes that surface online :)


I think eventually we could all come up with an exact tasting knock-off of a Larabar, if we just keep expanding on each others recipes.
