::Yoli Loves the Kids:: Healthier Halloween Treats

This is an update to my Halloween post from last year.

Sugar is Sugar. The body processes most sugars in the same way. But what is paired with said sugar makes the difference. Let’s make a commitment to provide some treats that also give back to our kids. Here are some recommendations you can find at your local health food store and online!


Gluten Free Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies
10-Pack
:: $14.90 ::

Home Free Treats
I love Home Free Cookie Treats. They not only are allergy-free, but they are vegan meaning dairy and egg free, and they also have a delicious gluten-free line. Perfect for all the kiddies and grown ups with food allergies. I’ve had the vanilla, chocolate chip, and chocolate chocolate chip. I can’t tell the difference!

Gluten free mini chocolate chip single serve cookie packs (0.95 oz), box of 10 snack packs. Every pack contains 1/2 serving of whole grain, of the 3 daily recommended servings. And they come it other new flavors.
