The perils of Summer....

Ice Cream. Hot Dogs. Potato Salad....

You get my drift. 

No matter how much Summer fruit and veggies we eat, there are things we eat that aren't the healthiest for us, or our kids!

So what if I told you there was a GLUTEN-FREE snack alternative that not only was yummy, but had CHOCOLATE and was also an ENERGY snack? 

Take a look:

Got your attention, didn't I?

The Gluten Free Bar, makers of what is often called the best gluten free bar on the market, have added a new bite-sized versions of its popular bars, which are naturally called, Gluten Free Bites.

“We were hearing from our customers that they wanted to eat our bars throughout the day, but didn’t always have room for a full one. That was what inspired us to create the bites. They’re everything that is nutritious and delicious about our bars, but in bite size. The best part is, with flavors like chocolate cherry almond and chocolate hazelnut, The Gluten Free Bites taste more like little truffle desserts than a healthy snack. It’s hard to believe they’re good for you, but they totally are!”, says Elliott Rader, Gluten Free Bar founder.

How good for you are they?

Full of pure, easy-to-understand, and delicious ingredients, these gluten-free bites provide a complete source of protein, derived from brown rice and pea protein, and are a good source of fiber. The bites are also completely free of wheat, soy, cholesterol, trans fat, casein and dairy, and are sweetened with agave nectar, brown rice syrup, and dates instead of added sugar. There are no fillers or additives, and every bite is made with all-natural and GMO-free ingredients, 70% of which are certified organic.

But all that goodness is enhanced by the delectable flavor combinations, like dark chocolate coconut, chocolate cherry almond, coconut cashew crunch, dark chocolate hazelnut, peanut butter and jelly, and dark chocolate peanut butter! Each bite is chewy and moist on the inside and features The Gluten Free Bar’s signature lightly toasted crunch on the outside.

Oh yes, Coconut Cashew Crunch is your friend indeed! The kid and I were fighting over this bag! Slow roasted cashews and fresh toasted coconut provide a chewy-crispy texture, that is just flat out addicting! And hard to explain. The kid described it as a grown up candy bar without the chocolate (which she isn't fond of anyways). They are PERFECT for an after dinner snack!

dark chocolate peanut butter gluten free bites

But you don't need fancy flavors! Even the simple Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter bites will wow you! I found that these actually seemed to give me MORE energy and the kid and I both agreed they were better for a breakfast on the go, and would be perfect for taking on hikes and trips to the beach!

dark chocolate hazelnut gluten free bites

Dark Chocolate Hazelnut is definitely like your favorite candy truffle from the holidays! With it's surprise chocolate center covered in toasted hazelnuts and almonds, these bites will wow even the die hard naysayer!

peanut butter & jelly gluten free bites

Peanut Butter and Jelly Bites were on the different side. The kid does NOT like PB&J. She likes Jelly, she adores peanut butter. She doesn't like them together. Sigh. So this pack became mine!  The bites are like an updated version, with creamy peanut butter middles and dried strawberries and crispy rice mixing in the coating, to give you your flavor effect. 

All in all we ADORED these bites! They are perfect for when you you just a nosh of something and a quick burst of energy, but don't want to get caught up in a sugar rush, or salt meltdown! Kids love them because they are kid size, and you'll love them for just how GOOD they are for your kids! I'm not sure if we'll check out the bars, as we both were pretty well hooked on the bites!
