Picture this: it's about 11 am, I'm starting to get hungry because it's been a while since I had my breakfast but it's still not legal to eat lunch.

I have this little voice in my head telling me I shouldn't eat lunch before 12:30 because I'm not 10 anymore haha AND I love long mornings - so I drag myself to the kitchen to make the same old snack consisting of rice/corn cake + nut butter + fruit.

Just as I am about to start my thing... I remember that I have these Honey and Almond Oatmeal Bars waiting for me in the fridge from the day before.

Oh, the happiness! It's like finding a forgotten bill in your pockets. Ok, it's not as cool but it's still cool. 'Cause these no-bake oatmeal bars are so so so tasty and I had to restrain myself the day before to not eat the whole thing.

One oatmeal bar a day, I told myself!

These easy No-Bake Oatmeal Bars are sweetened with honey and packed with crunchy almonds, chia seeds, and nut butter!

Am I the only one who gets excited by food like that? Solal and a lot of my friends are similar so I'm not sure if we're the normal guys anymore.

Like, when we decide to go on vacation somewhere, the first criteria we look at to choose the location is literally the food.

Anyways! No need to be food geeks to enjoy these healthy no bake oatmeal bars - you just need to be human and hungry sometimes.

That should cover a few people.

These are packed with good-for-you ingredients, like almonds, chia seeds, and healthy nut butter! As these are only sweetened with honey, they are also refined sugar-free.

Ingredients

• 2 ½ cup rolled oats
