I love lemons.
I love coconut.
I love oats.
I love dates. (the food and the activity)
I love easy, portable snacks that are healthy.
If you agreed with any of those statements, you're going to LURV this easy peasy lemon squeezy (pun intended) recipe!!
I make this before travelling, on any given Wednesday, or whenever I'm feeling Shark Week hankerings come on and need something sweet to snack on that's not going to bust my sugar intake levels.
