During the summer, it’s great to be able to load up the car, backpack, or cooler, and get the family out of the house. Whether you’re going across the country or just across the street, we all need a few go-to snacks on hand to get us through the journey. If you or one of your loved ones has allergies or dietary restrictions, sometimes always knowing that you can just “grab a bite” somewhere isn’t always a sure thing. Here are two easy and quick no-bake recipes for granola bars that are mindful of common food allergies. Both are gluten free. The Sunflower Bars are completely nut free, including peanut, tree nuts, and coconut. The Pecan Berry Bars (based on a recipe by Angela Liddon) are vegan, soy-free, and contain no refined sugars.
