We are here at the Back To School race trying to make sure we get everything just right before all of our little ones hop on the bus. There is so much to get in order too. I swear this list gets bigger and bigger every year! It's really tiring.
I have a cabinet of stocked up lunch box goodies for the kiddo's, a drawer in my office full of extra school supplies, I really do feel like I am on top of it. I even have a stash of mom goodies to help keep me going. (My secret treat!)
As far as snacks go, I was always told- "Rule of thumb, if it tastes good, it's no good for you." I object!!
I recently teamed up with Balance, a delicious and wholesome snack. I can't speak for the rest of the moms out there but, I know it keeps this mom content between meals. I get different cravings. Sometimes I want salty, sometimes I want sweet, sometimes I want nutty, I have different cravings. The Balance Bars really keep all of my cravings at bay.
This is not a diet bar, a meal replacement snack, or a bar to feel guilty over at all. It tastes great and satisfies my snacker craving until it's time for dinner or lunch. Yes, I admit it, I am a mid-morning snack hunter. Sometimes I just want something that tastes good. The texture is very nice. Not too chewy, really, it's nice all the way around.
One thing I do love is the nutrition value. I mean, I am getting the snack I want but, I am not using up all of my snack calories for the day. I'm a label reader. I love this label!
These are actually a great source of fiber and protein. Really, this is an amazing way to satisfy those sweet snackers and feed your body the nutrients it really needs.

The best part is to keep my husbands sugar low as he has diabetics.
ReplyDeleteIt would help with the diet cravings
ReplyDeleteI like that it still allows you 40 percent carbs. Most diets limit carbs so strictly that after about 2 weeks I cave and eat more carbs then I ever did in my life.
ReplyDeleteThe balance of macros helps!
ReplyDeleteit would help with balance of not eating junk
