If you are new around here, you might not know this, but I am currently on a mission to eat healthier and to treat my body better all the way around. I jumped at the chance to try out the new Quaker Soft Baked Bar. Each bar has 5g of fiber, 6g of protein, they are an excellent source of 5 B vitamins, and they only have 140 calories. That fiber and protein is really going to help fill you up and keep you full longer. I really do love eating wholesome food.
My first taste was the Cinnamon Pecan Bread. Pecans are my absolute most favorite nut. Now the package says you can eat them as is, or heat them up. I really have to insist that you heat them up. It was divine. You can see and taste the nuts and they had just the perfect amount of cinnamon. The next day I tried another one straight out of the package and it was very tasty, but nothing compares to having it slightly warmed in the microwave. Delicious!
My normal morning routine is to get the kids ready to go and I usually grab breakfast on the way out the door. These Quaker Soft Baked Bars are perfect for a breakfast snack. I felt satisfied and stayed that way.
In the perfect world I would have secreted them away to my stash so I wouldn’t have to share. They are really that enjoyable. However, I’m a good wife and mother so I decided I would share and let my family try them out. My son tried out the Banama Nut Bread and he loved it. He said he would definitely eat it again. High praise from a six year old! My husband tried both and thought they were both good. His favorite though was the Cinnamon Pecan Bread. He really loves his cinnamon. I love that you can actually see the nuts on the bar. They aren’t tiny little ground to bits pieces, they are real nuts.
So the final verdict is this: The Quaker Soft Baked Bars are delicious and I loved both varities. I loved having one for breakfast. I am also considering stashing one in my purse for when we go to the movies. Being on a “diet” is pretty brutal when the theater is full of buttery popcorn and candy treats. These would make the perfect snack.
