Holy cow.
These treats are like a cross between a peanut butter cup and an oatmeal cookie, plus they've got fiber and protein! In Peanut Butter Chocolate and Almond Butter, reach for these instead of junky candy with no nutritional value.
Look for them at Target, or just
order via Amazon!

This Week's 3 Things to Know…
Got dietary restrictions? Chipotle will help you order!
At build-your-own-meal places like Chipotle, it can be tricky to make sure your dietary needs are met. Is every ingredient you select low in calories, free of dairy, sans gluten, etc.? Chipotle Mexican Grill has got your back!
Click over to the website, and choose the tab with your preference to see a breakdown of which ingredients are right for you. The site even provides meal ideas to meet your needs. Chip, chip... hooray!
Love tuna, but concerned about mercury? Check out Safe Catch.
This stuff is seriously impressive. Using fancy technology, Safe Catch tests each and every fish for mercury content. And the company's limit is three to ten times stricter than the FDA's (depending on the variety)! It's also hand packed and slow cooked for optimal flavor. We tried it, and it's delicious! Definitely
worth seeking out...
Aquafaba: What the heck is it?!
You may have heard the buzzword "aquafaba." But what exactly is it, and what makes it so special? Aquafaba is the liquid that gets drained from canned garbanzo beans. Apparently, it makes a pretty decent vegan egg substitute! (As an ingredient, that is. You can't scramble the stuff.) We tried making mousse with aquafaba, but the results fell flat. Have you had success with aquafaba? Does it interest you? Sound off on
Facebook... Let's chat!
And that's all we've got. 'Til next time… Chew the right thing!
