Cookbook author Jennifer Tyler Lee and Anisha Patel, a professor of pediatrics at Stanford University, have teamed up to create a new family cookbook aimed at reducing the amount of added sugar in meals, snacks and desserts.
"Half the Sugar, All the Love" has 100 low-sugar recipes that were tested by kids. The foods are sweetened naturally with whole fruits and vegetables.
The authors say this no-bake energy bar is their riff on a popular brand's bar, but with no added sugar; instead, dates and tangerine juice add sweetness and flavor.
