Gluten Free with a side of Paleo for the everyday kitchen.
I am sure your probably thinking that this chick has entirely too many granola recipes and you’re asking yourself, “Why?” or maybe more like, “This chick is nuts!”
Like these Chocolate Peanut butter Granola Bars! …
Over the last week I have been traveling! Yes traveling! I know I feel like I don’t get out much but I swear I will be sharing with you the places I have been next week! It was such a great trip to just get out of town that it needs a post to talk about.
Anyways…
Right before our trip I decided that we needed some fun and festive snacks for the road. Something that fun, filling, low in carbs (okay not completely low), some what healthy and super yummy too! So naturally these s’mores granola bars were born! …
Currently sitting here eating one of these scrumptious chocolate peanut butter granola bars as dessert after dinner and thinking, man these are so darn good!
We always try to have these types of snack around opposed to chips and cookies because us as a family (by family I mean John, my boo, my mom and I) are trying to steer clear of processed foods. SO much harder than it looks trust me! Especially when you want those french fries so bad but it will probably take you a century to make them because your left handed and everything just takes longer. I have put a lot of thought into this!
Regardless though these are my obsession and i would prefer these over french fries any day. Unless I get myself a spiralizer and make those amazing curly fries that I saw on Facebook a little while ago. Then it would be some massive competition but right now in my after dinner bliss I am totally in heaven with these chocolate peanut butter granola bars chilling, half eating, on my little round saucer as my dog stares hopelessly trying to thinks of way to look cuter so she may get some….
I am absolutely obsessed with granola! Why you ask? Because it is so easy to make, bake, eat or even scarf down while you are on the go or even just sitting at your desk working! I also love granola because you can essentially customize it to your liking! I am a lover of the classic peanut butter and chocolate combination, so obviously I have a recipe for that one!
Although I could actually list all of the reasons why I love granola I will spare you the long, exhausting list (seriously, it will be exhausting). What is your favorite combination of tastes? Like maybe sweet and salty or even sweet and spicy, perhaps? Either way these recipes are definitely drool worthy and there is even a different way to get your granola on with just a simple pulse of a blender and off you go!

These are look amazing and I have tried a few myself too! I did add a couple of my own but I have a few more recipes for granola as well as a paleo friendly recipe as well! Simply go up to the paleo tab and you will be able to see all the recipes that are paleo!
I love making and having granola around to enjoy with my yogurt, as a granola bar or even just to snack on! It is simply my favorite snack because of all the healthy qualities it can have! (or all the amazing sugary tasting goodness too!) I love how some of these recipes are so simple to make and quick too! Most of the time my problem is I do not have enough patience to wait for it to be done because I can honestly say I am always hungry… which is both a great thing and a curse! (bahaha) I correct that, I am always hungry for GOOD food!

What to do when you are sick of your cereal or maybe you just want to make something so uber simple to eat for morning commutes or lunch on the go! These super high protein almond peanut butter granola bars are right up your alley then! (And mine too!)
We are always looking to do something different with oats and nuts especially to start off the spring when everything is starting to get super busy for us! Why nuts and oats you ask? Well, probably because they keep us SO full and not having the feels of HANGRY (yes, that happened). I know, I know, that is not a word, but it is the only way to describe how my stomach feels. We enjoy the simpler side of eating breakfast and snacks (and sometimes lunch) because both of us are always on the go! John either has to referee or I have to be taking pictures of this extraordinary almond peanut butter granola bars (see what I did there… 🙂 ) or running around trying to get ahead. (It truly is a constant struggle) …
