Easy Rhubarb Dessert or Bars Recipe

This quick and easy, Rhubarb Dessert Recipe - rhubarb bars is a great choice for a healthy finale to any dinner.

I made these rhubarb dessert bars yesterday with the rhubarb stalks from the last of this season's rhubarb harvest.

My rhubarb was a little to green in colour for my liking, so I made crimson red rhubarb.

With the added colour, the rhubarb dessert bars not only tasted amazing, but they LOOKED amazing too!

Scroll down for the link for instructions on how to make "green rhubarb" into "red rhubarb".

Enjoy it warm served with ice cream, yogurt, whipped cream, or served plain.
