Really, you HAVE to give these a try.
They are sooo yummy!
Like a candy bar, but without any of
the *scary* ingredients.
In fact, you can feel GREAT about having one of these.
They are soooo good for you!
How often does that happen?
Something that is good for you is also super duper amazingly good?
I found the recipe here.
And I tweaked it a bit to suit our tastes.
The result?
Perfect!
Now, you will have to keep them in the fridge or freezer,
they will be too soft at room temperature,
but, that seems a small price to pay for such yumminess.
Enjoy!

Thank you so much for letting me share these Lindsey! :)
~ The Ingredients ~
2 cups raw Almonds,
coarsely chopped
2 cups raw Pecans,
coarsely chopped
1/2 cup raw Sunflower seeds
1 cup raw Pumpkin seeds
1/2 cup dried Cranberries
1/2 cup Raisins
1/2 cup unsweetened
Medium or Shredded Coconut
1/2 cup Honey (liquid)
1/2 cup Coconut Oil
(Organic, Extra virgin, Cold pressed)
1 cup Almond Butter
(Natural, unsalted, roasted)
1 tsp Sea Salt
~ The Method ~
I make this in a 10 x 15 inch pan.
If you want to make less,
use an 8 x 8 inch pan and cut the ingredients in half.
Prepare your pan by lining it with parchment paper.
Coarsely chop the almonds and pecans.
Mix together all the raw nuts, seeds and
dried fruit in a large bowl.
Set aside.
Melt the coconut oil, honey and almond butter
together in a saucepan on the stove over low heat.
Stir the salt into it once it is melted and remove from heat.
Pour this mixture over your nut mixture.
Scrape all that yummy goodness out with a spatula.
Mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon.
Pour into prepared pan
and set into freezer to harden.
Remove from freezer once it is firm enough to
cut into bars.
Cut and store in a sealed container
in the freezer.
Be sure to put parchment or wax paper between layers
so the bars do not stick together!
About 15 minutes prior to serving,
remove the number of bars you need from the freezer.
Serve without guilt!
Yum!!
