Coconut Cranberry Power Bars

Many of our patients tell us they have a hard time finding healthy snack foods. This recipe is delicious as a snack, breakfast or even dessert. It is power packed with protein, healthy fats & fiber that will keep you feeling full and give you lasting energy. The hemp and flax seeds provide a healthy dose of Omega-3 fatty acids which help to reduce inflammation, improve cholesterol and are important for cognitive and behavioral function. Research shows Omega-3’s may even help lower risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and arthritis.

This vegan, Paleo, dairy-free, gluten-free and refined sugar-free treat is so easy to make, you won’t mind making a second batch when the kids beg for more! Live Well’s Natural Foods Chef & Educator, Jen Fanega, prepared this yummy treat for October’s Clover Market and it was a real hit!
