Wheat-Free Cashew Breakfast Bars image

My family reminds me weekly to make these so they do not run out. These bars are great if you have little time for breakfast. They are also great for an after-school snack or a small dessert. I always keep some in the fridge. Store in an airtight container in refrigerator.
