Add a photoThe trouble is that many popular grab-and-go snack foods contain a long list of added preservatives, artificial flavours, and genetically modified ingredients. To avoid these, nutrition experts recommend looking for foods made with whole, simple ingredients, no refined white sugar, and limited added salt – which can be tough to find and even tougher to get kids to eat.
Alternatively, try making your own snacks like these easy five-ingredient Chocolate Energy Bites, naturally sweetened with whole dried dates and crunchy coconut granola.
Ingredientes
- 2 cups Nature's Path Coconut Chia Granola
- 1 cup Medjool dates, pitted
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 1/2 cup unsweetened desiccated coconut, toasted
Direcciones
- Add granola to food processor; pulse until coarsely ground. Transfer to bowl; set aside.
- Add dates to food processor; purée until only small bits remain. Add ground granola, cocoa powder and coconut oil; pulse until combined. Return to bowl; stir in coconut.
- Scoop mixture into 2 tablespoonful portions. Roll into balls.
- Transfer to parchment paper–lined tray; refrigerate for 30 minutes or until firm.
