Bob's Granola Bars

1/4 cup margarine (canola or peanut oil might work)
1/2 pound marshmallows (about 30 large)
3 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1 cup whole almond kernels
3/4 cup (?) grated coconut [estimated amount]
generous 1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries, a.k.a. "Craisins"
generous 1/2 cup diced dried apricots
1/2 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup roasted and salted sunflower kernels
2 cups puffed rice breakfast cereal (like Rice Krispies )

Toast oats and almonds in a 375 degree oven. It works best if they are
in separate baking dishes, otherwise the oats tend to insulate and
protect the almonds from the heat. Meanwhile, in a huge heatproof bowl,
melt margarine and marshmallows in the microwave. Stir with a big spoon
to combine. Stir in the coconut, dried fruit, sunflower seeds, and wheat
germ. Next add the hot oats and almonds. Lastly, stir in the rice
cereal. It will be very sticky and hard to mix. Spray a 9x13 glass
baking pan with your favorite non-stick spray. Transfer the sticky glop
into the pan and press it down as tightly as you can -- covering it with
waxed paper while you press it helps. Allow to sit for a half hour or
so, and cut into squares when they are no longer sticky.
