For breakfast on the go and better snacking, we’ve been enjoying Cascadian Farm’s new chewy granola bars in Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip and Honey Roasted Nut.

The texture is great—not dry, like some protein bars.

And they’re very filling, standing in for a light meal on a busy day.

Both flavors are delicious, although we admit a preference for Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip.

By the way, there’s no granola in the bars. Ingredients include:

 
The bars are available at natural food stores and other retailers nationwide.
