Breakfast Bars from Cabinet Staples

I had the hungry horrors following my green smoothie this morning, and needed a little something extra to eat. But had almost nothing in the fridge or the fruit bowl!!

So I made some tasty breakfast bars, from ground almonds and some zingy dried cherries I found in the back of the cabinet!

In a food processor, combine:
1 cup of almonds (probably easier if you grind them up first)
4-5 big fat medjool dates
Pinch of salt
One tablespoon agave nectar (if the mixture isn't sticking)
1/4 cup dried cherries

Add the cherries after everything else is already doughy, or just knead them in separately.

Press onto a pan or tray, and slice into bars (this is easier if you put them in the freezer for a little while first). And, voila! A delish breakfast (or anytime) treat!
