Back to the kitchen

In the words of Notorious B.I.G.- I’m going back back to Cali Cali…..  and after the long trans coast flight it’s now back back to Kitchen kitchen ;)

But first a couple more wedding pic because we are still glowing

So, while easing (and this recipe is def easy) myself back into the kitchen I had a couple of priorities. Something, sweet/salty yet not with crazy amounts of sugar or butter. Also, something I could eat as a post workout refuel, or just a quick snack.  I’m not too picky at all. Ha, but here it is the combo of all my favorite foods:

PB Rice Krispy treats

2 cups rice Krispies cereal

1 cup semi crushed pretzels

3/4 cup M&Ms

1 Tbsp Agave

2 Tbsp Peanut Butter

Throw PB and agave in a pot and stir until melted. When melted lower heat and add in pretzels and cereal. Fold in M&Ms. Place in glass dish and put in refrigerator for an hour or two.

So these are very tasty, but a little crumbly. What I should have done is decrease the M&Ms (since I wanted lower sugar anyways) and added more PB for binding…. Oh well, I’m a messy eater and now I have chocolate! Do you guys have any more ideas for somewhat healthy binders???
