Why shell out $5 when you can make energy bars at home? Packed with tons of flavor and punch, this DIY super snack will power you throughout the day. The dried prunes in this recipe give the bars a chewy consistency with the ground pistachios function as both a nutrient-rich building block that lends structure and  as a textural element that conveniently contains good fats and proteins to keep you satisfied. Pro tip: Rinse your hands under cool water or give them a quick shot of non-stick spray. This will keep the mixture from sticking to your hands.
