Chewy Almond Butter Bars

This recipe combines 4 of my favorite ingredients that are incredibly healthy. Almonds, almond butter, olive oil, and Chia Seeds. All of which are packed with good healthy fats that can help reduce weight loss. Instead of olive oil coconut oil can also a healthy substitute.

Having these almond butter bars on hand makes life easier. After a long day these are great to grab as a healthy afternoon snack for the kiddos. And they are not messy like some cereal or granola bars.

Benefits of almond butter bars the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition study write it so well. “Incorporating limited portions of almonds — an energy-dense food — into a behavioral weight-loss program still resulted in significant weight reduction.”

These bars have both the healthy fats from almond butter and Chia seeds. Have you yet added Chia seeds into your diet? Well if not, this is as great a time as any. They are packed with 6g of Fiber, 2.9g Omega 3, and 3g Protein in every 1 Tablespoon serving. I try to add this powerhouse food over yogurt, oatmeal, salads, in smoothies, and homemade cookies and bars.
