I have found the BEST homemade, protein-packed, with no refined sugar, SNACK BARS! My entire family loves them! They are perfect for an anytime snack, packed in school lunches or before sports practices! I've found that having healthy grab-n-go snacks available at all times is key to staying on track with my nutrition. If I have to stop and make a healthy snack on the spot, it probably won't happen!
MOMS, am I right or am I right!?!?
