Thrive Energy Bars

I recently ordered Brendan Brazier's (of Vega fame) Thrive cookbook. So far, so good!


I've noticed that as my workouts get longer, I sometimes need a little snack to keep me going, especially on days where I double up (1 hr yoga and 30-45 mins. cardio) or longer weight lifting sessions followed by running. 

I decided to try out Brendan Brazier's Green Energy Bar recipe. These are like homemade LaraBars, but are freezable (without getting hard!) and way more economical. 
The recipe makes 8 bars. I have them scored and frozen in parchment so that I can break off a bar whenever I need one. Perfect gym snack!!
