Happy New Year!! Wow… here we are in 2016! I hope you had a wonderful holiday season and may this New Year be filled with many blessings to you and your loved ones. We had a quiet New Year‘s Eve with our family. We ate delicious food and waited for the 12 chimes, or rather the ball drop, with our champagne glasses filled with champagne of course, and 12 grapes. In the Spanish culture when the clock strikes midnight you eat twelve grapes, if they’re not eaten on time, the person who fails to follow tradition will have bad luck during the next 12 months. Of course, I never finish them on time but it’s fun anyway. With the arrival of the New Year, most of us make New Year’s resolutions but I prefer short measurable goals so I don’t set myself up for failure! So I decided to start with creating an eating schedule for me since my major problem is that when I working I can go for hours and hours without eating. Welp… for those long hours work days these Chocolate Peanut Butter Energy Bars will be perfect!!
These Chocolate Peanut Butter Energy Bars are full of goodness!!! They’re packed with nuts, seeds, and dried fruit, for a grab-and-go snack you can enjoy anytime.
I also added Jif Chocolate Peanut Powder, which has the same amount of nourishing protein as traditional peanut butter, but with 85% less fat. It’s the perfect way to add delicious peanut taste to smoothies, baking, breakfast and more – with fewer calories and sugar. Jif Chocolate Peanut Powder contains semisweet chocolate and a dash of sugar, making it perfect for People with a serious sweet tooth, like me, looking for something a bit sweeter.
