If you're a busy mom (working or home with kids), you’ll want these granola bars on hand!
These chewy, kid-friendly bars are the ideal grab-and-go treat to have on hand a sudden snack attack hits. Store-bought breakfast favorites can be loaded with refined sugars, preservatives, and other less-than-healthy ingredients. These little beauties are tart and savory, thanks to the addition of cranberries, walnuts, and cinnamon. They would be great on a platter in your kitchen or individually wrapped in your car for your next road trip!
