Zucchini pie anyone?!? When I say zucchini pie, most people give me a weird look! However, when they try it, they find that it is quite yummy! It reminds me of a custard pie; smooth, creamy, amazing. It is a great way to use up that one zucchini that you found hiding that has grown to the size of a small baseball bat.

Puppy Chow is my absolute favorite holiday sweet treat! The crunchy, chocolate, peanut buttery goodness I crave! Have you ever had it? It’s the perfect party snack. I like to upgrade the ingredients to make it as “healthy” as possible! 😉

Puppy Chow Recipe Notes:

The darker the chocolate you use, the less sugar it will have. I like these.
Be sure to use natural peanut butter. ingredients should only contain peanuts and maybe some salt.
This freezes great so keep it in the freezer and pull out when desired.
Look for an organic powdered sugar that uses tapioca starch instead of cornstarch and is made with real cane sugar.
This recipe is gluten free. To make it dairy free, use coconut oil instead of butter.
Choose organic when possible.

Healthy Ingredient Upgrades For Thanksgiving

Make your Thanksgiving meal more nourishing by upgrading your ingredients. Most ingredients in a recipe can easily be swapped for a healthier upgrade without compromising flavor! Take a look at the list below. What healthy upgrades can you make in your cooking/baking? This particular list includes products that you can swap out one for one. Ingredients like almond or coconut flour are great baking options, but are not a one for one swap so they are not on the list. If you want to use those ingredients, I recommend finding a recipe that calls for it.
