Now before anyone starts going tsk tsk tsk and lecturing me about sticking to Nutrisystem (LOL) there are no worries. I inhaled, eh hem, sampled some delicious (who am I kidding, they are D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S!) new snacks from Nature Valley called Nature Valley Granola Thins. I can see that if I am daring enough to bring these back into my home I’ll have to have my husband keep them under lock and key. These are like potato chips – it’s hard to eat just one!
Nature Valley Granola Thins are crispy squares of granola, similar to the Nature Valley crunchy granola bars with one extra sweet difference – one side of the square is covered in either dark chocolate or peanut butter. Two of my most favorite words in the English language are “Chocolate” and “Peanut Butter“. Ha Ha.
Each box contains 10 individually wrapped squares making these the perfect treat to slip into your child’s school (or camp) lunch. Even my husband loved these. They would be ideal to keep in your desk draw to help satify your hunger and sweet tooth and to help you steer clear from the junk in the vending machines.
Each Nature Valley Granola Thin is made with 100% natural ingredients and contain either 80 (chocolate) or 90 (peanut butter) calories each.
I have always been a big fan of Nature Valley products but these Granola Thins are by far my most favorite product.
These squares are great on their own, dipped in milk (my kids seemed to enjoy it) or dare I even say TOGETHER! I just had to do it. I ♥ peanut buttercups and I just HAD to see how the dark chocolate and peanut butter squares tasted together. I took one from each box, opened the packages and put the squares back to back so the peanut butter and chocolate sides were touching. Heavenly! It was simply heavenly!
My kids even discovered that they taste good with a small smear of Fluff on them as well. Fluff is a marshmallow spread. My kids wanted to get creative with the Nutella too but I thought that might have been over kill. You wouldn’t want to cover up the fresh, crunchy granola taste.
FYI… with the hot and humid weather the chocolate and peanut butter tends to stick to the cardboard sheet they rest on. If you pop them in the fridge for a few minutes they will firm up and be much easier to remove. Trust me, I had to do it with the horrible hot weather we’ve been having.
Nature Valley Granola Thins are AWESOME! They are oh so good and I’ll certainly be buying them to add into my kid’s lunchboxes this school year. They were a huge hit with the entire family.
