Raise your hand if you grew-up on creamy tomato soup and crackers? I distinctly remember sitting at the kitchen table, my legs swinging in mid-air, too short to reach the ground, and the sound of my mother opening a can of name brand soup.

Chocolate Crunch Balls
I am always looking for quick, easy and tasty snack ideas. I am also a big sucker for nut butter, whether it is peanut butter, almond butter or cashew butter, I can eat them by the spoon full. I decided to throw 2 nut kinds of nut butter in a bowl together with some maple […]
