Raw Bars- Honey Peanut

Living Bee
                            
      These are great to make when you are traveling. Its super easy to keep them in your purse for a quick snack. Also when traveling its hard to find allergy friendly restaurants. I usually end up eating so many salads that I hate lettuce by the end of the trip!  Traveling is becoming easier due to all the allergies lately. I guess it's a good thing because we can eat! 
    So I was in Texas! Conceal carry-my brothers were so mad they couldn't join me. It was beautiful weather and a nice change from the rainy days here in Chicago. Texas is a beautiful place, specifically fort worth. So friendly!! Big TCU town, which is cute. Before leaving, I typed in gluten free restaurants in fort worth on google. You'd be amazed what comes up! Numerous restaurants offered separate menus. I was in a small shopping center that had a gluten free bakery and many restaurants offering gluten free buns! A little restaurant called Dakota's, in Dallas, accommodated me amazingly. The chef made me anything I wanted. They were very conscientious and friendly. Having someone so aware was nice! I did not have to worry at all. 
      Bake to the recipe. Raw bars are also a power food. Just look at the ingredients! So many nutritional benefits packed into this small square! Treat your body and your taste buds. Remember raw foods aid in healing your body by replenishing the natural nutrients.
