Snacking is always my biggest downfall when it comes to healthy eating, and in moments of weakness, I tend to find myself reaching for chips, crackers, and other unhealthy “filler” junk foods. Since I’m heading to the beaches of Jamaica in just a couple of months, I whipped up a batch of these delicious cranberry almond energy bites so that I will always have a healthy snack within reach. No more excuses to reach for unhealthy foods!
