This delicious vegan recipe is gluten-free and works great as breakfast, snack or dessert. In addition to the delicious flavor of strawberry and banana and protein from the quinoa, both pumpkin and flaxseeds are included in these bars. Seeds are an excellent source of fiber, unsaturated fats and magnesium. If you eat a plant-based diet, getting enough healthy fat is important to maintain hormonal health.
