I'm looking for any bars (energy or otherwise) that don't have any tree nuts in them. This includes peanuts, walnuts, etc. I can eat seeds of any kind luckily. I am having a hard time finding trail bars that are light and without nuts.
Any ideas?
I already found a great trail mix, but would like something that packs a little more punch, packable and of course tastes good!
Thanks for any suggestions.

The good thing about something like this is that you can adapt it to your own tastes. You can use apricots or cranberries instead of raisins, etc.
