Cranberry-Oatmeal Bars

Continuing to empty my pantry, I used up the rest of the dried cranberries making Cranberry-Oatmeal Bars from the current Cooking Light issue. The ingredients were those that are always around our house, and it was very easy to put together.

I didn't measure everything exactly, as I was working to get the bars in the oven before Ben would wake up (which he did, not long after the mixture was placed in the oven!). I also tried adding mini chocolate chips to the top of the bar on half of the mixture.

One thing is for sure - the bars make the house smell great! I prefer the bars with the chocolate chips. This is a good recipe, but probably not one I'd go out of my way to make again.
