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.

Ever wonder why a crackling fire draws you towards Ever wonder why a crackling fire draws you towards it like a moth to a flame? The fire’s warmth is more than just heat; the foods you cook on a flame add more than nourishment.⁠

One of my favorite memories as a kid growing up in the Research Triangle in North Carolina was the annual church hayride at the country home of our friends, the Barbours. We lived in a suburb of the state capital, close to physically yet far away from life on the outskirts of town filled with Tobacco fields, cotton patches, and red dirt roads. ⁠
⁠
The Barbours had some farm that my little self couldn’t comprehend. In reality, they may have had just land, yet to me; land meant a farm. And besides, they had a big ol’ barn, tractors, and hosted the annual hayride.⁠
⁠
My favorite part of the memory was the firepit, where everyone gathered around, laughed, and enjoyed each other’s company. It didn’t matter if you were a kid or elderly. ⁠
⁠
You may think, “But I don’t have a fireplace or firepit! What can I do?” ⁠
⁠
Improvise.⁠
⁠
Youtube a crackling fireplace video or a firepit on a beach. Dim the lights and turn the crackle up. Invite yourself to a friend’s home with ample backyard and offer to bring ‘smores. Go to a park.⁠

Webster’s Dictionary has two excellent definitio Webster’s Dictionary has two excellent definitions for the word nourishment. One is “to provide with food,” and the other is “to provide for,” to provide support.⁠
⁠
I love that.⁠
⁠
Just as food sustains and keeps us alive, feeling supported sustains us mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. It’s how we build bonds, friendships, and hope for the future.⁠

“Stop sneaking the spiced candied pecans!” I s “Stop sneaking the spiced candied pecans!” I said this not once, not twice, but almost three times before Dennis beat me to say those words again. “I’m sneaking some more,” he happily declared.⁠
⁠
I’m delighted that he was enjoying them! I assured him that he could have allllll that his little heart desired… he just had to allow me to take a few photos for you!⁠

You see these spiced candied pecans are simple and easy go-to appetizers that we should always have the ingredients on hand. For those “just in case” moments when… ⁠

⁠
Did you know that folks in the UK will use the word “cheers” as “thank you?” From wedding toasts to praising someone for remarkable achievement, raising a glass with a special someone is a special bonding moment.⁠
⁠
I love that part about “cheers” and “thank” can be the same. ⁠
⁠
Have you ever wanted to become more thankful? More grateful? More appreciative of, well, everything that we take for granted?⁠
⁠
Why not give thanks and cheer a little more often?⁠

“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
