  Prune-Nut Snack Bar

  Note:
  Dates and raisins are to be used infrequently for many disease conditions, so I made up two recipes, one with the original ingredients, the other with prunes. I look forward to making up a version of this fruit bar using dried apricots and walnuts - as well as other dried fruits and nuts.
