New style Larabars! Yipee!

So I've upped the exercise and eating tenfold over the past week (and promptly gotten sick, that serves me right for trying to do too much, too soon!) and have been attempting to find something that is quick and easy to grab pre workout. I love smoothies, but first thing in the morning I find them a bit cold and intense and I'm no ones favourite flatmate if I get the whizz stick or juicer going "What ARE you juicing?? TREES??" has been a previous comment while shoving hunks of unpeeled ginger through the juicer very early! I;m also not much of a breakfast girl so small and quick is the best.
I've attempted making my own lara bars with mixed results previously... they just weren't quite right... (old nuts anyone?) So I was delighted to find new RAW bars at the special needs store when I went!

Ceres Organics RAW Food Bars

They are made mainly with dates and chopped up nuts and are super delicious! I gobbled the ginger one in the car on the way home. At $2.80 each they are more expensive than all my treat foods [insert very sad face] and are not very viable for an everyday option. But they have inspired me to give homemade ones another go! And a nice alternative to chocolate bars when needed.

Alas the hunt for pre workout food continues.
