I've been making a food plan for an upcoming trek, and I've hit a few road bumps.

Though I enjoy the taste and everything else about the probars, I just can't afford too many of these.

I cant get cliff bars for 80 cents each, but I would not want to survive just on those, as they are way too sweet and digest far too fast.

I have no tried the Bear Valley Pemmican bars yet. I plan on maybe having 1-3 per day; if I like them.

This leaves me with making my own food. I plan on making hummus and dehydrating it. Sounds simple, even though I've never used a dehydrator.

I think that with hummus/crackers or wraps, cliff bars, pemmican bars and maybe a probar or half of one, I can make about 3/4 of my daily needs.

This got me thinking: I should try making my own trail bars, or some kind of healthy, balanced, high calorie trail food.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I know there are lots of threads on trail bar recipes, etc but I just want to know if I've pointed myself in the right direction before I go purchase a dehydrator and ingredients.

THANKS,
Blair
