I debated for awhile whether I should call these granola bars or not. I came to the conclusion that these are much more worthy than that!!
They’re full of superfood ingredients like Dark Chocolate, Natural Peanut Butter, Goji Berries, Cacao Nibs, Coconut Oil, Pure Maple Syrup and, of course, Chia Seeds. Which means, they’re loaded with protein, fiber, omega 3s, antioxidants and essential vitamins and minerals!
With all of that nutrition packed in there, would you believe that they actually taste like candy bars?! Eating this healthy has never tasted so good ?
