Smart Simple Snacking with Nature Valley

School is right around the corner. Can you believe it? It feels like this summer has just flown by! My daughter will be in five days a week pre-school this year and she is starting dance. So our schedule will be jammed packed and we will always be on the go. I am excited for everything the new school year will bring, but this means I will have to choose smart, simple snack options that are great for on the go. Here's a sneak peak of my go-to items that are in my bag for the school year.

 
Besides having a great bag, diapers and wipes for my youngest and other essentials, I am excited about Nature Valley Simple Nut Bars as my new go-to snack. These super yummy bars come in two varieties: Almond Cashew Sea Salt and Roasted Peanut Honey Original (my favorite). They are only made with 7 simple ingredients, like roasted almonds, roasted sunflower seeds, and sea salt. They are gluten free, made with no high fructose corn syrup, and kosher dairy.


Nature Valley Nut Bars were easy to find at my local Publix on the breakfast aisle. I was also able to download a $0.75 off coupon from readyplansave.com/savings. Plus they are a part of the Box Tops for Education program, so you can save money for your school while snacking simple.
