Having a healthy snack ready to go at all times makes me feel like I’m winning at life! I also get extra bonus points if they taste yummy, too. If this is something that interests you, allow me to introduce you to power bars made quick and easy!

This post is happily sponsored by Think.Eat.Live. Gluten-Free SunPower Bar Mix and I receive affiliate earnings at no cost to you. 

Think.Eat.Live.

For over a year-and-a-half now I’ve been collaborating with Caryn and Dan, founders of Think.Eat.Live., an amazing sunflower seed flour company based in St. Louis. We’ve been working together on recipe development, recipe testing, and food photography… however the best part is getting to know them. They are wonderful people!

We bonded instantly because of our similar backgrounds with food sensitivities. Because of their desire to feel better they worked for years on improving baking mix formulas for a perfect balance of protein, carbs, fiber, and fat. 

They figured it out and the answer was sunflower seeds!

SunPower Bar Mix makes it easy.

Who would’ve ever thought that the humble sunflower seed could be made into nutritious and delicious flour?

While Think.Eat.Live. has an entire product line including a brownie mix, muffin mix, pancake and waffle mix, pizza crust mix, and SunFlour® flour itself, today I want to talk about their SunPower Bar mix.

A traditional gluten-free breakfast bar has 4g of protein and 34g of sugar… the SunPower Bar Mix has 14g of protein and 13g of sugar.

The mix already contains pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and dried cranberries, so all you have to do is mix it with eggs and 2 tablespoons of nut butter or nut-alternative butter and bake.

SunPower Bar Mix makes it quick.

Keeping this SunPower Bar Mix stocked in your pantry will mean you will always have an easy nutritious snack on hand and ready to bake.

These bars are perfect for those times when you need something fast! Like, a quick bike trail ride or for the 2pm afternoon slump. It might just make you feel like you’re winning at life!

PS // If you’re new to this blog, you may not know that I lived a gluten-free and dairy-free life for fifteen years. Thankfully, I am able to eat gluten and dairy now but you know what? I still prefer gluten-free flours, so yes… we eat and love the Think.Eat.Live. mixes and flour.

My name is Lyndi Fultz, and I live in the beautiful Ozark Mountains, which span Northwest Arkansas and Southwest Missouri.

I like to share small ideas for living simply and eating happily.

You will find that I talk a lot about food because we all need to eat. Why not add little bits of food joy where possible?

There is something quite glorious about simplicity There is something quite glorious about simplicity. I'm really feeling it as Dennis and I sit here in our living room, next to the crackling fire. Full disclosure, this picture isn't me BUT I do have the exact same coffee cup. Anyoo, I'm reminded how wonderful it is to be still. Not that I ever forget that reminder, it's just easier to revel in it, next to a fire. With snow softing falling outside. You know what I mean?

First, it was a percolator.
Then came the Breville coffee maker.
Next, along came a bodum pour over.
Quickly replaced by a French Press.
Then came an Aeropress.
Followed by a rediscovery of a favorite instant brand we enjoyed in Isreal.
Now, Aeropress is making a comeback. 
And our beloved LaVazza espresso.
Which tastes like vacation at the Sonnelap in Vail.

Am I the only one who does coffee in phases?

What's next?

Probably need an espresso maker!
Isn't it interesting how two things with the same Isn't it interesting how two things with the same word can convey entirely different moods?

Microwave turntable = quick, fast, speed

Record player turntable = slow, easy, chill

Both have their places. But man, oh man, I am finding myself craving more of the latter: slow, easy, chill. 

Now, to get a record player...

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
