Should you transfer schools if it's too "easy"?

What is your major? Are there opportunities for undergraduate research, or for assisting a professor with publications?

Also, I’d recommend talking with an adviser and not just your friends about the honors courses that are available. For example, my university offers honors courses in mathematics including senior level. Students in other fields are often encouraged to take graduate courses when they are ready. An adviser will know about the specific courses.

Most majors have room for elective courses, and courses that meet the general education requirements are not barred from being electives. On the other hand, in some cases the general ed courses and their honors counterparts are “equivalenced” so that you can only obtain credit for one or the other. This will vary from university to university, but an adviser can tell you about the situation where you are.
