3-Ingredient Energy Bars

The ingredients in these bars are just about as simple as it gets! Medjool dates hold the bars together beautifully and provide just enough natural sweetness, while nuts/seeds provide protein, satiating fats, and texture. Chocolate chips are the finishing touch, like icing on a cake!
