I Heart Lara Bars
Can I just say that I LOVE these bars? If you're looking for healthy calories to keep you energized before or after a particularly tough workout, you should give these guys a try. I've decided that any time I do a huge cardio workout (running 3+ miles outside or biking 15+), I get one that day. While they are 220 calories, they also have 5g fiber(20% daily recommended), 5g protein (10%), and 250mg potassium (10%), no cholesterol or sodium, and count as a daily serving of fruit (they have a fig base).
While they may have a similar calorie count to a small brownie or a few cookies, they're great for energy. I like the Larabar Coconut Chew and the Jocalat (same company) Chocolate (supposedly tastes like a brownie, but I think that's not accurate but equally delicious).
What else do you guys like?
