Time magazine's health section lists five granola bars that have a good balance of protein, fat and calories without too much added sugar. The article says a bar with 5 grams of fiber, 5 grams of protein and 5 grams of unsaturated fat will be most filling.
The bars they like include Core Food (~$4 each), Kind (~$1.00), RXBars (~$1.30), Lärabars (~$1.00) and "This Bar Saves Lives" ($1.67). Prices are when purchased in a box of 10 to 15 bars. The bars can also be found in health food stores and specialty stores like Trader Joe's and Whole Foods.
(I took a couple granola bars and Powerbars with me on a trip to Amazonian Peru. The first night, I was awakened by a crunching sound. I found several cockroaches, each almost as large as a granola bar, struggling to bite through the plastic bag the bars were stored in.)
