I have a new love in my life… Gnu Foods Flavor and Fiber bars. Y’all know I have tried a number of different bars, but these are by far my favorite. When I received my pack of bars, I just fell head over heals for the flavors. Chocolate Brownie, Espresso Chip, Orange Cranberry, Cinnamon Raisin, Peanut Butter, Banana Walnut and their three new flavors, Blueberry Cobbler, Blondie, and Carrot Cake covered my kitchen counter.
All of the flavors are unique making it difficult for me to pick a favorite but here are my top three…
1. Orange Cranberry Bar
2. Blondie Bar
3. Blueberry Cobbler
Beyond the flavors, I love that these bars are chewy and extremely nutritious! Did you see… they have TWELVE GRAMS OF FIBER in them!! How awesome is that? That’s 48% of your daily recommended intake of fiber.
Most bars have 3-4 grams of fat in them and have 130-140 calories in them. I don’t know about you, but I think that is wicked awesome for a high fiber bar! I’ve always loved granola bars and high fiber bars but I struggle at the thought of eating 250 calories in one bar. The flavor and fiber bars are so tasty and beyond filling because of the amount of fiber in them.

This week I’m planning to throw a Flavor and Fiber bar into my work bag along with some fresh strawberries for a late afternoon snack! That’ll be the perfect snack before my Body Revolution workout and to tie me over until dinner.
Yesterday Neal and I headed over to Butler’s Orchard in Germantown, Maryland to pick our own strawberries.
I love picking produce and was excited to take Neal strawberry picking!
The weather couldn’t have been more perfect. The strawberries were nearing the end of their season, but there still were lots of berries to pick.
5 pounds later, we were set (for at least the week)!! I’m thinking I’ll be freezing some strawberries for smoothies by mid week.
Well I hope y’all have an amazing start to the week! Today I start Body Revolution Phase 3 (week 9), which is exciting yet scary. What motivates me though is my wedding (33 more days) and my Body Revolution results so far. You have to check out my Phase 2 results if you haven’t seen them already.
Also, don’t forget to enter the Gnu Foods Giveaway. It’ll be open through the week.
Happy Monday!

I’m so jealous that you’re already picking strawberries!
I LOVE berry picking. Strawberries aren’t in season for a few more weeks here and I can’t wait!
Ooo those bars look tasty. I haven’t seen them at my grocery store. Those strawberries look awesome.

Thanks Lyn! Welcome to Coffee, Cake and Cardio!
I tried the GNU bars for the first time last week and I must say they are yummy. I like the new flavors…blondie bar and the carrot cake bar. I can’t wait to try more like the blueberry cobbler bar, the peanut butter bar and the chocolate brownie bar. I would love a chance for a free 16-pack. I’m already a fan of them on facebook and will leave a comment there about Coffee, Cake and Cardio which I saw on facebook and liked reading your blog.
My dear mother sent us GNU bars. It does make a healthy gift. I’m a fan who likes the Orange Cranberry bar best.
