(6)
"I'm partnering with LÄRABAR® & Feedfeed! There’s always a delicious way to celebrate ? a brand new year and fresh starts. I’m committing to incorporating more creative ways to eat balanced, simple, nutritious foods that actually fuel me. I know the impact of eating well and I love getting creative with it. I have always loved LÄRABAR® Bars for their simple ingredients, and I made the cutest mini fruit tarts and they turned out perfect & I’m so happy to share!❤️✨ I used Lemon Bar LÄRABAR® Bars ? for the crust and homemade plant-based cashew cream for the filling, and fresh fruits on top! I purchased all of my ingredients at Kroger. From 1/6-1/19 you can get 10/$10 on LÄRABAR® Bars, and from 1/13-1/26 you can get 2 Multipacks for $12 at Kroger! These are perfect for entertaining or simply to enjoy throughout the week for you and your family — they are plant-based, processed sugar free, gluten free, and filled with deliciousness and love ? not to mention relatively easy to make! ? Hope you enjoy!"
