I'm looking for a recipe for healthy, hopefully low cal granola bars. I can't seem to find any recipes online.
Anyone have any ideas?

I found this recipe here (mfp), I changed peanut butter to pb2 and added protein powder:
Homemade No Bake Granola/Protein Bars
1 and 1/4 cups crisp rice cereal
1 cup uncooked quick-cooking oats
2 tablespoons ground flaxseed (flaxseed meal)
1/4 cup finely chopped dried fruit (used Craisons)
1/4 cup finely chopped nuts or seeds (used sliced Almonds)
1/4 cup chocolate chips (used special dark chips)
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup nut butter (used PB2 reconstituted-may need to make it slightly runnier than normal reconstitution)
1 teaspoon almond extract
3 scoops vanilla protein powder
Directions:
Combine PB and honey. Melt in microwave about 30sec-1 min, until its nice and liquid like.
Stir protein powder and extract into warmed honey/PB mix
Combine all other ingredients in large bowl (do this before or while the pb/honey is warming up)
Pour PB over dry ingredients. Stir well. Put in greased 8x8 pan and press firmly in the pan.
Refrigerate for a couple hours then cut in 12 pieces
