Healthy On the Go Snacks

We all have those crazy busy days in which there is not time to eat a full meal. Instead of turning to a bag of chips or bag of candy, turn to one of these filling fruit and nut bars.

Larabar:

Contains only three ingredients. The one I tried was the Cherry Pie bar and it contains, unsweetened cherries, almonds and dates. This bar is dairy free, vegan friendly, gluten free and soy free. The taste is rather mushy and sweet even though it is not sweetened in the process. One Larabar contains 200 calories, 8g of fat and 23g of sugar. Remember, the sugar is natural sugar from the dates and cherries.
Larabars can be found at Whole Foods Market, Target, Publix and even stores like Costco and BJ's. 








Perfect Bar:

Another one of my favorite bars is the Perfect Bar. It comes in a variety of flavors such as peanut butter, peanut butter with coconut, almond butter and my favorite, the dark chocolate with peanut butter. 

Each bar contains from 360-380 calories which is what an average meal should consist of on a daily basis. These bars are GMO free, USDA organic and contain well over 20 superfoods derived from whole foods. 

Perfect bars can be found at Publix (sometimes BOGO :)), Target, Whole Foods, Amazon, Costco, Sam's and BJ's.
