Tami's+Get+Me+Through+the+Day!+Bar+recipe

I found on John's **LI Raw Foods Group** Facebook page Tami Racaniello's **__** Get Me Through the Day! Bar recipe **__**. I couldn't resist emailing it to you. I love energy bars, and this is a great recipe. I completely forgot about camu powder and stopped using it in my recipes. I looked online and the ** camu berry ** is one of the world's most abundant sources of vitamin C - as much as **60 times more C** per serving than an orange. ** THANK YOU, Tami!**

A much better choice than reaching for a sugar-filled snack with no nutrition. This bar is packed with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, fiber and omegas. So easy to make, and they store in the fridge for a grab n’go snack, or they can keep for weeks in the freezer.
 * Ingredients:**

½ cup pumpkin seeds ½ cup sunflower seeds ¼ cup hemp seeds ¼ cup sesame seeds ½ cup unsweetened coconut flakes ¼ cup raw cacao 1 Tbsp camu powder 1 Tbsp cinnamon ½ tsp Himalayan or Celtic sea salt ½ cup frozen cherries (organic, no sugar added)

1 cup of pitted dates, soaked in a little water to soften if needed ¼ cup extra virgin coconut oil 1 Tbsp vanilla extract Put all seeds in a food processor & pulse until coarse. Add coconut flakes, cacao, camu, cinnamon, & sea salt. Pulse again, just to blend in. Add the dates, and pulse until mixture forms together. Add coconut oil and vanilla extract. Mix all together until a ball starts to form. Scoop out on wax or parchment paper and roll into a sausage shape. Wrap up and set in fridge for 30 minutes to harden. Cut into 1-inch slices. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
