While we love our Clif and Nature Valley bars for on-the-go and post-workout snacking, it's also so nice to make something yourself (and use whole, fresh ingredients). If you're heading out to go backpacking, hiking, camping, or maybe just on a road trip, don't just snack — snack smart! And make some of these before you head out.

Whether you're a granola bar gal or you need a bit of pre-workout protein, we've got a range of healthy recipes for you (including some copycats of our favorite brands!), with everything from chocolate to peanut butter to fruit and oats. Happy (healthy) snacking!
