Looking for a delicious, healthy gluten-free snack that is also dairy-free and soy-free? Look no further, as I have the perfect snack option for you.
My favorite healthy gluten-free snack that I always have on hand has got to be NuGo bars. I discovered NuGo bars several years ago at Expo West when they gave me a sample of their chocolate vegan protein powder.
I gave the protein powder sample to my teenager, as he was looking for a plant-based protein for his peanut butter smoothies. This boy is picky, and he did not like the allergy-friendly protein powder that I was using at the time. He said that this simple ingredient, protein powder, was not sweet enough for him.
My son tried the NuGo vegan protein powder and really liked the taste. So, I went to the NuGo website to buy him more, and that is when I discovered that NuGo had an ambassador program. I joined their program, and they sent me their variety box of NuGo Dark Chocolate Protein Bars.
Delicious Plant-Based Nutrition
NuGo Nutrition believes that the freshest, healthiest ingredients are also the best tasting. Twenty years ago, they set out to develop the first nutrition bars with “decadent taste, wholesome nutrition, and quality ingredients.” They are committed to keeping GMOs, artificial hormones, stomach-upsetting maltitol, and artificial sweeteners out of NuGo products.
You will love that all of NuGo Nutrition's products are gluten-free. Some are even dairy-free and soy-free. These protein bars are loaded with protein and nutrition.
Inside the variety box of NuGo Dark Chocolate Protein Bars, there was a selection of their most popular flavors. My teen son was happy to try all the different flavors. From a dark chocolate mint protein bar that tasted like a thin mint cookie to a dark chocolate pretzel protein bar to a brownie flavor, my son enjoyed these healthy bars for breakfast out the door.
After sampling all the different flavors of NuGo Bars, my son decided that the gluten-free dark chocolate pretzel protein bar was his favorite and asked me to buy more. While I was on the NuGo website, I checked out the other bar flavors, and I saw that they had a selection of organic bars.
The organic NuGo bars contained no soy protein. That was a plus for me, as I am allergic to soy protein. So I ordered a box of the NuGo organic NuGo bars. After seeing how much my son loved NuGo bars, I was excited to taste these protein bars.
