Trader Joe's Frozen Fruit Frenzy Bars



Although it's getting colder, it's always nice to have a cold/ sweet pick-me-up every so often. And, as I've mentioned before, I'm trying to avoid unnecessary sugars in my treats. The Raspberry, Lemon, & Strawberry Fruit Frenzy bars from Trader Joe's has been a life changing experience. No, seriously, they changed my life.


 They are made with real fruit, meaning you get the same benefits as you would by eating the actual thing. These are so simple that, if you don't feel like making a trip out to the store, you could make them yourself. You blend each of the fruits whilst adding a bit of water (try coconut water if you are feeling adventurous!), depending on the consistency you are going for --these were on the thicker side, so when you bite into it, it was like chewing the real fruit-- and you just freeze them for later!

These are the perfect thing to have for a family treat, a sweet snack after working out, when you're sick, or even when you just have a bad day. Next time you go to grab some ice cream or a popsicle, look at the ingredients. I can guarantee the amount of toxins will have you rethink what you want to be putting in your body, not to mention how high in sodium they are and the number of calories they have compared to these. Next time you're wandering in Trader Joe's frantically trying to decide what to cook for dinner, and what you'll need for the week, remember these fruit bars!
