The best and worst things about my office is the coffee shop in the main lobby. Having access to awesome healthy options like energy bites and açaí bowls is amazing for my tummy but is not reasonable an everyday option, which has led me to get creative and try my hand at my own versions of my coffee shop favorites.
After making a copycat version of their energy bites for a while, I decided to try a new version that pulls in the flavors of trail mix.
Hope you enjoy!
