Awesome, Amazing, and Healthy!!

These are the homemade Lara bars and although they look like bird seed they taste awesome!! Here's the recipe--

2 cups raw cashews
2 cups pitted medjool dates
1 Tbsp. coconut oil
splash of vanilla
optional but recommended--
1 Tbsp. flax seed
1 Tbsp. hemp seed
1 Tbsp. chia seed

Pile it all in a food processor and blend until well chopped. Then press the mixture into a 13 by 9 pan and chill it for a few hours. Then cut into bars and enjoy!

I found this recipe at this blog--Green and Crunchy.

I want to come over and try a bite before I buy everything, but it sounds interesting!

They look really good, but I'm with Julie. I think I'd like to try them first. Sounds too healthy to taste any good ;o)

I love Lara bars but they are expensive, so that is a great idea.
