Here is a recipe for Raw Hemp and Chia Seed Bars, which is a healthy and nutrient-dense raw food snack. They pretty much have all my favorite ingredients...hemp seeds, chia seeds, coconut oil, and nut butter. Loaded with protein, calcium, healthy fats and fiber, these bars are perfect for snacks or even as a breakfast bar.

  3. In a large bowl, mix all dry ingredients together (oats, hemp seeds, chia seeds, ground flax seeds, ground almonds and coconut, if used).
  4. In a medium sized bowl, mix all wet ingredients together.
  5. Take the wet ingredient mixture and combine in the large bowl with the dry ingredients and stir until well combined, using your hands if needed.

  7. Put in the refrigerator or freezer to chill or until the mixture is firm.

  1. I’ve added PB2 as well and it’s so good! Sometimes I chop mixed nuts to add and most of the time we add cinnamon. These are definitely a favorite for us!
