What are the benefits of eating dates?

Dates are a great food to include in your kids day. Not only are the packed with fiber (almost a full gram of fiber per date) they are portable and delicious.  This makes them easy to take an eat on the go. They are higher in calories than other fruit which is great for picky eaters. That’s what makes these bars an even better snack, kids can eat dates with healthy dry fruits all day long.

Because dates are so sweet, dates provide the perfect natural alternative to added sugars in any date recipe. In fact, dates are such a great source of natural sugar, they have been processed to make natural sweeteners such as date juice, date sugar, dehydrated dates, date paste, ground dates, and even diced dates that you can add to recipes you want to sweeten up naturally.

I remember my mom used to soak almonds and give it to us all siblings in morning time when we were kids. Soaked almond are really cool for our body, they never gives heat to it. Otherwise almonds are so heated snacks, while having or eating them as raw. I used to soak almonds at night, for me and for my kiddo and husband and next day morning peel the almonds and give them as a snack in breakfast or with milk.

Can I eat dates every day?

You can! One serving of dates is 5-6 dates, which is really easy to do when you blend them in a mixer and make delicious no bake date bars like this!
