The Recipe ReDux seems to sneak up on me every month. Here is this month’s theme!
Back to the Dinner Table
After the hustle and bustle of the holiday/vacation season, August is the time many families get ‘back to routine.’ Show us your favorite recipe to help families get ‘back to the dinner table.’ It might be a favorite family recipe from your childhood that you’ve ReDuxed; or maybe it’s your family’s current favorite. Let’s all gather back at the table!
You know what else is sneaking up on me? School. All of a sudden sports practices have started, stores are having summer clearance sales (just got 2 pairs of Birkenstocks for A HUNDRED DOLLARS) and there’s getting to be a chill in the air. I don’t start until the day after Labor Day but I know lots of schools are already in session!
This isn’t a dinner recipe, but often times I’ll be at work during the evening and my mom and I can’t eat together. We can eat breakfast at the table though, and these are great for breakfast. During the school year I make a batch every week. Breakfast, snacks, or even dessert, they’ll work for anything! And they have quinoa flour so they’re pretty much a superfood bar.
These banana quinoa snack bars are vegan, gluten free, and are so easy to customize to your liking! I’ve tried them with lots of flour combinations and they’ve all turned out amazing. The chocolate isn’t necessary, but I mean…. chocolate. I have this weird feeling they might be pretty tasty spread with coconut oil and/or nut butter! Not that I know from experience or anything.

Hey! Those sound so good. I would love to see a picture of a piece cut out of the pan. Have fun thinking about getting back to school!
These sound like an perfect quick breakfast and healthy which is awesome!
Thanks Jenny! I love them
Everything about these bars looks absolutely delicious… especially that chocolate drizzle!
Chocolate drizzles can make anything delicious
I’ve never used quinoa flour before! Have to add that to the list along with banana flour to try. This looks amazing!
I love quinoa flour! It is a bit more bitter but so healthy
I need to get my hands on banana flour too! It sounds so interesting!
Hi Leigha! I wanted to comment and let you know both that this recipe looks SO good, and that I have started my own blog!!
You really inspired me to want to have a blog of my own, and I’m so grateful for that! Thank you. So feel free to drop by! I think it’s linked in the comment, but if not, it’s http://www.thekalestorm.wordpress.com . 
Teresa! I LOVE it!!! So excited that I can follow your journey now
hope all is well!
What a yummy combo of ingredients and the chocolate glaze looks devine!
100 dollars for TWO Birkenstocks!?!?! Woooow, lucky you – I really want a pair, but they are usually so damn expensive :/ Well, nice!
Love these bars! I actually have a back of quinoa flour sitting in the cupboard, but I find it hard to find things to use it for – so this is just perfect
I’d definitely get a pair
I’m obsessed! You should try the quinoa flour! It’s a bit bitter, but so healthy!
Leigha, these look so, SO good! Do you think they can be made with all purpose flour in place of the quinoa flour?!
I’m sure they could
let me know if you try them! Thanks Allie!!
