New Found Favourite Snack

Meet the LARABAR

I first was introduced to this bar from a favourite blog of mine

Here is the link to Susan's blog if you want to visit

Susan has been a real inspiration to me- we first met when I moved to Moncton in 1988 because her Nanny and Poppy lived behind me and I grew up with Mal and Ken as surrogate grandparents to me. Susan and I used to play together as kids then we lost touch for a while in high school and university and are still not close but I always read her blog and her courage and process of blogging is so incredible that it's a real joy to know her.

So back to LARABAR this week as I was at Costco picking up fruit, I came across a box of LARABARS and took a peak at the ingredients. The one thing that really blew my mind was that there was NO SUGAR ADDED, the ingredients are all unprocessed and are either fruits or nuts or both. As most of you know I'm a huge snacker and it has been so difficult to find a snack that I can buy to throw into my lunches when I have been called to work- this has been a lifesaver!!! I've tried three flavours- key lime pie, apple pie and peanut butter cookie- so far peanut butter cookie is my favourite. All the bars are gluten, dairy and soy free and are vegan and kosher.  They all contain less than 6 ingredients that I can read, pronounce and understand as well. 

Here is me with my LARABAR and fruit for breakfast this morning

The main ingredient in all the bars are dates so they really pack a punch on the fiber!!

Hope you all check out Susan's blog and check back tomorrow for my new favourite easy lunch xo
