Printer-friendly version.

For an easy and packable snack, just whip up some energy bites. Throw a few in the kids' lunch bag or yours to curb the afternoon snack craving. Try the base recipe or mix it up with some of the swaps or add-ins.

The base recipe includes oatmeal, nut butter, ground flax seeds, honey and other yummies. Swaps and add-ins include dried fruits, nuts, spices and other flavorings.

P.S. this recipe is a great way to have the kiddos try a new food. It's also a good one for getting the kids into the kitchen--helping to measure and mix.
