Who needs some YUMMY low carb snacks? These primal bars are amazing and Keto friendly!
Another new snack for the ketogenic diet! These are also great if you are following a low carb diet. You can omit the chocolate chips if you want to, but using dark chocolate is great for a lower carb count. I’ve really gotten use to the taste of dark choclate now and use it in my baking quite a bit, but if you are making these for kids or want something a little sweeter you can use milk chocolate chips.
These are great to have a round for when you need a little snack. I find that since I started drinking Keto/os I eat much smaller meals now. Some meals are actually more of a snack these days. It’s because when your body is using ketones as duel it runs much more efficiently then when it runs on sugar.
I find I feel so much better now following a Ketogenic diet and I have so much energy! It’s great because with four kids I need all the energy I can get to keep up with them.
I hope you enjoy these delicious primal bars as much as I do!

What’s swerve
Swerve is a natural sweetener (Erythritol). It’s pretty cool because it sweetens things and measures just like sugar, but your body can’t digest it meaning it effectively has 0 carbs (erythritol gets excreted in your urine as it can’t be digested)
Why I don’t see the nutritional information. Nice and good recipes but need to know the macros
