Hi, guys!

It’s no secret that I love snack bars. I often turn to them when I need a quick snack or when I travel. I even enjoy them as dessert after dinner on occasion. Basically, I’m a huge fan of snack bars and always like discovering new ones. That said, I was intrigued when Cascadian Farms contacted about their new protein granola bars made with pea protein.

Each bar has 250 calories, 14-16 grams of fat (2 grams saturated), 3 grams of fiber, and 9 grams of protein, which makes them quite the satisfying snack.

And the best part about these bars (besides the taste, of course) is the ingredient listā€ā€there’sĀ not too many and nothing crazy-artificial. Personally, this really surprised me because I typically expect boxed bars to have all sorts of weird, hard-to-pronounce ingredients in them. Reading the ingredient list on the side of the box was definitely a nice surprise.

  8. I love the idea of having a healthy bar with protein, fat, and fiber because it’s satisfying and easy to throw in my bag. But if I don’t have a bar, I take almonds, cheese, and fruit of some kind.

  9. Almonds, apples, yogurt, Kombacha! I am trying to find my favorite bar that is low in sugar, high in protein, so I could love to try these!

  10. I love granola, trail mix, almonds and chocolate. I will admit that travel usually involves a bag of skittles too — but that’s just because calories don’t count while traveling, right?!

  11. My travel friendly snack fits perfectly with this post – bars! Also usually bring some trail mix

  12. Almonds and dried cranberries seem to be my go to lately, or homemade bars, but these would be a great whole food but quick alternative. Mmmm

  13. When were traveling or PCS-ing, I luv Trader Joe’s dried fruit (which ever fruit I’m really loving at the time or mix of fruit) Protein bars or nut butters and fresh fruit slices.

  14. Best travel food is jerky and protein bars! And of course some gummy bears thrown in there! šŸ™‚

  15. Baby carrots, grapes and Lara bars are my go to! Will have to check out cascadian farms on my next trip to the grocery store!

  16. My favorite travel snack is usually beef jerky. I need to get away from it though, as it usually has lots of salt.
