I don't know about you, but I am getting so excited about the weather warming up. With warmer temperatures come some of my favorite things… Flowers start to bloom, the days become longer, grass becomes green again, waking up to song birds in the morning, spring rain showers and the sun on my face. Farmer's markets start to open and fresh spring and summer fruit comes into season – by far one of my favorite parts of the spring and summer. You just feel like you are snacking brighter when you have a good juicy strawberry as a treat. Also, when the temperatures rise we all start to crave cooler treats. It doesn't matter how old I get, I still enjoy sharing a popsicle with my kiddos. More than anything these days, when selecting my cool treat, I gravitate towards fruit bars that are packed full of real fruit just like Edy's Outshine frozen fruit bars…
Recently, my family had an opportunity to try the Outshine Fruit Bars and we were transported straight to summer even though the temperatures were still in the 30's here in Lincoln. I've tried several kinds of fruit bars through the years and I LOVED these. No matter what flavor you select, and there are many, you will have no doubt that you are enjoying fresh fruit. My daughter Emily even said, "check out this huge chunk of strawberry, it's sooooo good!" We tried four different flavors…
I can truly say, I loved them all. Each one of them tasted like fresh picked fruit and basically that's pretty much what they are. They are a much better for you option when it comes to sweet treats. The Strawberry Outshine bar has 70 calories and 0 grams of fat. How can you pass up that fresh picked goodness?
These yummy fruit bars help my family and I SNACK BRIGHTER!! Visit the Outshine Facebook Page to see all of the amazing flavors!
