These No-Bake Almond Apricot Coconut Bars are one of those staple recipes I've made for years.
In fact I first discovered them when I was pregnant with my first son and trying to stock my freezer with healthy options before he arrived!
And here we are 6 years later making them again :)
The reason I love them is that they are easy to make, delicious, and loved by the whole family.
The dried apricots add that chewy sweetness, while almonds and coconut bring healthy fats that help keep little (and big) bodies fueled.
And here’s another cool thing: Both dried apricots and almonds are rich in polyphenols, plant compounds that help calm inflammation and support a healthy gut. Those polyphenols actually feed beneficial gut bacteria, which can positively impact digestion, immune health, and even mood. ✨
Comment "bar" and we'll send you the recipe!

Feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or struggling to focus? 😣
For many women and kids with anxiety, depression, or ADHD, these challenges can be rooted in magnesium deficiency.
Magnesium is a foundational mineral that can help:
✨ Calm the stress response
✨ Support mood & serotonin
✨ Improve focus & attention
It’s not a magic fix, but it’s often a missing piece for mental health. 💛
Comment “Magnesium” for more info!
If your child started ADHD meds and isn’t eating or gaining weight, you’re not alone! 🧡
Appetite suppression is a common side effect. Many kids:
• Aren’t hungry during the day
• Miss key meals
• Fall behind on growth
The fix? Not forcing food, but strategic nutrition:
✅ Time calories when appetite returns
✅ Use high-nutrient, energy-dense foods
✅ Support digestion + absorption
✅ Work with meds, not against them
As a functional nutritionists for kids with ADHD, we help families keep their child on effective meds AND on track to grow, gain, and thrive. 💙
