Over the last few weeks I’ve changed my eating habits to be more healthy and balanced. With a busy weekend I knew I wanted to make some snacks and meals ahead.  And with only 3 ingredients needed, I wanted to give homemade Lara Bars a try.  These bars are Cherry Almond and they taste great!

You can actually use all kinds of ingredients to make your own bars at home but I love cherries and almonds so I just went for it.  

First step in making Lara Bars

You add the 3 ingredients – 1 c. unsweetened cherries, 1 c. raw almonds and 1 c. Medjool dates to a food processor.

Let's chop up the ingredients for Lara Bars

At first they will be chopped up.  But after a minute or two, they turn into a paste:

And then they turn into a paste for Lara Bars

The dates make the mixture stick together.  You then lay it down on wax or parchment paper.   And spread it out with your hands.  Stick it in the fridge for an hour or so.  Then bring it out and use a pizza roller to cut into bars.

You can wrap them up in plastic wrap and stick in the fridge until ready to eat.  Or if you want to stick them in your lunch box to eat later you can do that.

    These look so easy and so so tasty! We just bought a TON of dates and now I know what I’m going to do with a bunch of them. I wonder if adding a little honey may tap into my sweet tooth just a bit (; Thank you so much for sharing <3

(Like Mickey!) I started 30days several years ago as my idea file. After 9 years and thousands of ideas, I realize I’ll never be able to check them all off my list.
