We were lucky enough to recently sample some Dark Chocolate Pistachios and Pistachio Chewy Bites from Setton Farms.  One word: yum!  These tasty creations were popped into the backpack during a hike and devoured somewhere around mile 3.  Did you know that pistachios are packed with protein and fiber?  Plus, dark chocolate is one of nature’s best sources of antioxidants.  Studies have shown that both dark chocolate and pistachios can help improve health and lower the risk of heart disease. . . so we felt like we were doing ourselves a favor by gobbling these up!

The Chewy Bites were also nutritious and delicious.  Consisting of cranberries, agave nectar, and pistachios, these treats are kosher, vegan, and gluten-free – a Colorado girl’s dream!   Of course, given snowgrrl’s sweet tooth, Setton Farms’ Dark Chocolate Pistachios are slightly more of a draw, but either choice is perfect to throw in your backpack, drawer, or purse for quick and healthy energy on the go.  Thanks, Setton Farms, for letting us try these out!
