I’m in LOVE. For real. I came across this recipe for Homemade Almond Cookie Bars modeled after the classic Larabar on the Tone it Up! gals’ blog and it looked too easy to pass up.
I’m a bar lover but since my Birthday Goal, clean eating stint I’ve cut back on them considerably and have been looking for a recipe to try. They were quick and simple and taste DELICIOUS!
A recipe that only has four ingredients that you don’t have to cook was made for me! Ahem.
All you need is dates, almonds, sea salt, vanilla, some plastic wrap and a food processor or a blender. You can head over to the Tone It Up! post for the complete recipe but I will tell you this … it only took me 15 minutes to make – tops.
My masterpieces all ready to sit in the fridge before trying them.
My son caught me chowing down. GASP!
I’m already thinking of the different variations I can make. I see some tart cherries and dark chocolate in my future.
Today’s workout: Tennis. I took a much needed hour long tennis lesson with my family.
Family Fun: My sister, Nicole; My Dad; My Aunt Kristi; and Me. The perfect start to the official first day of summer!

The samples of dried cherries at Fitbloggin re-ignited my cravings for Cherry Pie Larabars. At $1.25 a pop my occasional Larabar cravings add up. I’m totally trying this!
