So my whole life there's been no peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, no Reese's Cups, no snickers, no trail mix, no puppy chow, no peanut butter cookies, no peanut butter on waffles, pancakes or bananas and the list just goes on and on.
People have told me that I'm missing out on lots of things in life when it comes to peanut butter treats. My mom is convinced that if I wasn't allergic to peanut butter or peanuts that it would probably be one of my favorite foods. But I've never known life with peanut butter or peanuts so I just a way of life for me. Until I went to high school camp with the student ministry.
A sweet woman that went with us was eating something on a banana. I sat down next to her and asked what was she putting on a banana? She tells me that it's Nutella. Do what? Nutella?!? Hmm.
So I picked up the jar and of course read the ingredients for any kind of peanut product and to my surprise there isn't a drop of peanut anything in it. So I got a banana and spread a small sample on top. And I was HOOKED!! It was so good!
Nutella is made with skim milk, cocoa, and hazelnut. I can't get enough of it. Toast, bananas, oatmeal squares dipped in it, french bread with cinnamon/sugar sprinkle it's delicious! So far toast and bananas are my favorite. I mean on toast it turns into a warm delightful treat!
So breakfast and snacks are no longer the same for me. Nutella has taken over. So the next time you're at the store, pick up a jar and enjoy the original hazelnut spread!
