We’re in the middle of summer and getting prepared to head back to school in less than a month – crazy! Fortunately the kids don’t go back to school till the 22nd of August, so we have a few more weeks left of summer freedom for the kids. Which is great since we need to get the kids back onto their bedtime/wakeup schedule before school starts!

Since we don’t have a ton of time left in the summer, it’s time to make the most of the summer that’s left! I whipped up another recipe for some easy, no-bake bites to fuel your end-of-summer adventure (or whenever the snacking mood strikes)!

These no-bake Cranberry Chia Protein Bites are made with Bob’s Red Mill Hemp Protein (just like my Espresso Hemp Bites), but these have a fruity twist for those of you who don’t like coffee. They’re also a variation of my older recipe for Cranberry Hemp Bites, which are also awesome and perfect if you are on a grain-free diet.

I love flavors like vanilla, chocolate, and cinnamon, but it’s awesome to have fruity flavors in my bites, too! Dried cranberries are a favorite of mine since they are sweet/tart, and they mix well with all kinds of other foods, so we love adding them to homemade trail mix and other snack recipes.

For this recipe I used some strawberry-flavored dried cranberries, they taste delicious in these bites! It adds a bit more fruity flavor to these bites 🙂 You can also use dried cherries or dried blueberries in this recipe for fun twist!
