Chickpeas are a great non perishable and versatile protein that are packed with fiber and other key nutrients important for keeping your immune system healthy and energy up. Check out my video on how to roast chickpeas and incorporate them into an easy, no fuss meal. #vegetarianrecipes #chickpeasrecipes #antioxidants #e

Cranberry Almond Energy Bites

I really try to avoid buying/eating store bought granola and cereal bars for several reasons: 1) The are loaded with extra sugar 2) They often contain processed soy and protein derivatives 3) They are overpriced I have posted recipes for homemade bars in the past, but I think these bites are a great alternative, and slightly more convenient to store and travel with. For me, most of these ingredients are staples in my pantry, making this an accessible snack anytime. If you are

Summer Fruit and Quinoa Protein Bars

I have major Goldilocks syndrome when searching for a wholesome and nutritious granola bar. Too much sugar, not enough protein, too many processed ingredients or not enough fiber. See what I mean? Not to say I don't pop a manufactured bar into my diaper bad from time to time, but when the logistics and ingredients line up, I try to whip up my own homemade bars for an easy snack option for the family. I like use either PB2 or quinoa for my protein rather than a processed prote

Easy DIY Cereal Bars

While it is ultra convenient to grab a box of granola bars off the grocery store shelf, I can't help but get super skived out by the ingredient list. If you are looking for a healthier snack or breakfast option for you and your family, try making your own bars. I usually start with my own base of quick oats, mix in a few tablespoons of flax seed (for some heart healthy omegas and fiber), toss in some dried fruit, a squeeze of honey or agave and a dash of brown sugar. I have s

Chia Seed Apple Pie Pancakes
