...lately has been this yummy little snack I threw together the other day. I had a little bit of peanut butter left in a jar, and wanted to use it/get rid of it, to make room in the refrigerator. So, on a whim, I grabbed some Greek yogurt (one of my other obsessions) out the fridge, too. I put the PB in a bowl, and warmed it a few seconds in the microwave, just to soften it up. (It was about 1/4-1/3 cup, maybe?) Then I mixed it with about a cup of yogurt, and a drizzle of agave syrup. (Only because I was using natural PB). I mixed the hell out of it, then said, "Hey! Why not add a little cinnamon?!" You know, cuz it's supposed to help regulate blood sugar and stuff.
Man, let me tell you, that concoction smelled heavenly! I sliced up a delicious, crisp, tart Granny Smith apple, and got to dippin'! Mouth-gasm!! It's very reminiscent of a taffy apple, but without all the "bad" stuff. I think the next time I make it, I may either add some chopped nuts (to REALLY get that Taffy Apple effect) or some flax seed. They would add some crunch, and I'm guessing, up the nutritional benefits.
I'm 100% certain some of you have already thought of this, and probably have enjoyed it many times. But, I love it too much not to share. I should have snapped a picture of it today when I made it (for the third time this week!) but I just couldn't resist shoving it in my pie hole. Sue me...
