When it comes to the kids, I have a major issue with packaged snacks. Don't get me wrong. I still buy them out of convenience but if I had the time to make everything they ate from scratch, I definitely would. Granola bars have always been on my list of items to try. Today while working I had Giada on in the background (I promise, I was working, I just need a little background noise) and she was whipping up this little recipe. It looks simple enough and I loved that it had peanut butter, almonds (both great proteins) and fresh oats (fiber!). I altered it just a bit by adding chia seeds (if you are not adding these to everything already, you absolutely should). They were a hit with the kids and my Oldest has already asked if he could have one after school tomorrow. WIN for me!
