My interest in eating healthier started with looking at a Macrobiotic diet and I decided to try it for a week and needed a good snack and so this was the perfect snack! I have adapted it to use easier and simpler ingredients, but these delicious bars are great in keeping you full and satisfied!

Originally, I used Brown Rice Syrup, but I couldn’t find any in 3 different grocery stores that I normally will buy my groceries from; therefore, I decided to try and recreate the recipe using a more common sweetener that is easier to find. This is very simple, quick, and easy to make, so I hope you ENJOY this recipe!
