I have seen it on blogs for forever, and finally found a health food store that carries PB2 here in Canada, and frankly, I wasn't impressed with the fact that it is sweetened and has salt added to it. I'd rather have the naturally occurring, good for me fat than worry about a few extra calories.

Therefore, this is a good source of fiber. I do agree, however, it could always use more! Flax or chia would be a good addition, or perhaps more blueberries? Or even walnuts or almonds. I might even experiment with almond meal or something like that.<br />Thanks for reading, and for your kind words about my blog :)Gina; The Candid RDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13034788087113648183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5287299798491768678.post-61164949425020510572013-04-18T22:57:49.061-04:002013-04-18T22:57:49.061-04:00I love these.

You would probable need more almond milk though. I'm going to play with this. Great recipe. I'm loving this.

Even before that my attempts to reduce added sugar in my life left me altering a number of recipes.<br /><br />I've definitely had some wins but also some major fails. I still have a lot to learn about the function of certain ingredients in recipes. Sometimes simply ommitting them isn't the best idea. Trial and error I suppose!Kerry @ The Adventures of Z & Khttp://www.theadventuresofzandk.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5287299798491768678.post-20105822764245557022013-04-18T12:21:28.770-04:002013-04-18T12:21:28.770-04:00So wait, whoa you don't need to berate your hu...So wait, whoa you don't need to berate your husband's eating habits (Nick btw loved the same "snack" as my 9 year old) you can help them make a healthy change? you're a good woman.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17713676282787688389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5287299798491768678.post-19530378917047462013-04-18T10:47:40.676-04:002013-04-18T10:47:40.676-04:00I think PB makes anything look good ;) And I'...I think PB makes anything look good ;) And I've definitely done that before with the blueberries turning baked goods blue/green. I actually kind of like the way that looks - it means they're deliciously fruit-sweetened!<br /><br />Nick sounds just like Peter - Peter used to eat an English muffin with PB&J every night. At least I've finally switched him to whole grain alternatives ... sometimes :PJessiehttp://thehappinessinhealth.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5287299798491768678.post-10803211435010780242013-04-18T08:45:29.869-04:002013-04-18T08:45:29.869-04:00anything pb&j has to be good!anything pb&j has to be good!Tiff @ Love Sweat and Beershttp://lovesweatbeers.comnoreply@blogger.com
