I had been on the lookout for an easy to make granola bar recipe for a very long time. Granola bars are a staple in my home and my family gobbles them up quicker than I can buy them! I'm so glad I found this very easy and very flexible granola bar recipe. Healthy Easy No-Bake Granola Bars | |||||||

This blog started as a way to write about my weight loss journey. I joined My Fitness Pal and my husband suggested that I blog about it. Not long after I began to blog about what I had started to call My Healthy Journey it became about more, it's about being healthy as a person. Body, mind & spirit. My hope is that at least one person that reads this will take comfort that they are not alone. Mother, wife, sister, daughter, cousin, friend...I am me and this is my life.
