Have you ever found yourself starving, but empty handed? It's not pleasant when the hunger hits and you have to grab something when you're out or you have to starve until you're home. Being gluten free, I'm grateful there are more options than there used to be to grab something on the go, but if I can, I'll try to have planned out my snack in advance. After all, meal planning properly just keeps you on track.

One snack I've been LOVING and always have one or two in my purse are Nomz Energy Bites. Mid afternoon is when I sometimes crave a sweet something, especially of the chocolate variety, and these snacks literally STOP a craving in its tracks.

Unlike some energy bites on the market, they have only 3g of sugar per serving, which comes entirely from dates (high in fiber!) All of their energy bites are:

• 100% Organic
• Vegan
• Paleo
• Gluten Free
• Peanut Free
• No Refined Sugars

My favourite flavour? I'm torn between the almond and coconut - basically my two favourite foods haha!

Where can you get them?

• Whole Foods
• Loblaws City Market
• Pusateri's & Holt Renfrew
• Pharmasave
• They are in TONS of places now - you can click here for a full list.
• You can also buy them direct from Nomz website.

Once you get your hands on some, share a pic with me and tag me @healthyeatingandliving.ca
