I'm notoriously bad about skipping meals. I usually have energy bars or granola bars at home, but I even get lazy about eating those sometimes (or just too busy!).
So I was excited to receive the brand new Balance Bar mini energy bars to sample. These 100-calorie treats are packed with good-for-you protein as well as 23 vitamins & minerals. And they come in flavors I simply love: a box of ten includes five cookie dough bars (my personal favorite) and five double chocolate brownie bars (the kids' favorite).
Balance mini energy bars are also free of trans fats and hydrogenated oils. They are crafted using the 40-30-30 nutrition principle, which represents the balanced caloric ratio contained in the products. Specifically, this means that 40% of calories come from carbohydrates, 30% from protein and 30% from dietary fat. This ratio provides your body with the fuel it needs for lasting, healthy energy.
Honestly, these are REALLY good! I've been snacking on them between meals to make sure I keep my energy levels up. And it's a tasty treat I truly enjoy - and they're also easy to take when you're on the run.
I wasn't sure how the kids would like them - so we put them out at our party for a taste test. GONE. DEVOURED. They're healthy for kids too, so I recommend you give them a try! CLICK HERE to visit the website. and HERE for more nutritional information.
You can also download a $1 off Balance Bar coupon (not valid for minis) from their FACEBOOK PAGE. Enjoy!
