Mulberry and Walnut Snack Bars
After making trail mix the other day, I decided to figure out what to do with the mulberries I had left.

I was making a shopping list this morning and realized I had dribs and drabs of certain ingredients, and way too much of others, including some dried white mulberries. Turns out that mulberries taste great with walnuts. So, logically, I took the easy route and just threw them all together in a bowl, winding up with an exotic trail mix.
