A YouBar For A New You

As the holidays are quickly speeding by, our thoughts now turn to welcoming in the New Year. Of course with the New Year come all those resolutions - with health and fitness goals being some of the most popular ones. While I'll be blogging about New Year's resolutions later this week, you can jumpstart your journey back to healthy eating by creating an energy bar made just by you.

YouBar is a fun company that lets you create your own customized nutrition bar. Just go through the steps to build your own bar by first choosing a base (such as almond butter or organic dates) and then adding in your choice of protein powders, nuts/seeds, dried fruits and berries, natural sweeteners, grains/cereals, and even infusions such as a shot of vitamins or fiber. As you build your bar you can see how it stacks up nutritionally in the nutrition facts label. You then name your bar and voi·là you receive your customized box of bars in the mail.

Overwhelmed by all the choices in creating your own? Then check out their link on some of their popular bar flavors for suggestions.

Not into nutrition bars? They also have links to make your own protein shakes, trail mix, or even craft your own healthy cookie.

New Year's resolutions never tasted so good!
