The other day I was searching the supermarket shelves for a muesli bar/snack bar kinda thing that was gluten free, refined sugar free, and not full of chunky nuts (because my youngest daughter doesn’t like the chunky nut bars). I couldn’t find anything suitable, so I went home and converted my Lime & Macadamia Biscuits into bars. They were a winner!
I swapped the lime for lemon and added currants, and chilled them really well so they could be cut into bars easily. I recommend keeping them in the fridge or freezer so they stay cold, as that way they are chewy not ‘cakey’. You can wrap them separately in baking paper for lunchboxes, if you like, too. 🙂
If you can’t have nuts, try the nut-free version below – it’s also great for school lunchboxes! Both versions are also gluten free, grain free, dairy free, egg free, and refined sugar free. Enjoy!

We love it when my sister makes us Brazilian Cheese Puffs!! 😍 They never last long unless I hide some, so she usually makes a double batch, and we keep half the batter in the fridge for the following day. They are the BEST hot out of the oven, sliced open and slathered with butter... YUM!!!! But they're also great cold, and since they are nut free they make the perfect lunchbox filler. There’s plenty of recipes for cheese puffs out there, but these ones seem to rise better than others I've tried, and they don’t deflate as they cool due to the method of chilling the batter really well before baking. This recipe is gluten free, grain free and nut free.

Can you believe Quirky Cooking is now in its' 10th year?? I'm kind of amazed it's already been 10 years, but part of me also feels like it surely must've been longer - so much has happened in that time! My own personal health journey (and that of my family) has taken me in directions I never imagined 10 years ago, and the blog has come along for the ride...
