Good Afternoon,
This is no ordinary snack…you may want to share with a friend or use as a pre-workout or post-workout meal because it is very filling. 🙂
Pretty simple to create this sweet, creamy, yet crunchy snack!
First you take an apple…
Slice it…or use a nifty apple corer (is that a word??) and CORE IT. This is one of those utensils I have used a whole two times…but it is fun!

Add your peanutbutter (preferably creamy) and sprinkle granola on top! I used the same granola that I am in LOVE WITH as in my post rightfully called Bear Naked Granola. Love the granola, love the idea behind the company.
Very filling and delightful snack on a summer day! I used it today to fuel for my “ellipticizing” tonight.
Before you scarf down your “snack” beware of the calories. A recommended snack is usually less than 200 calories…more like 150 calories or less.
Calories: 320
Fat: 17.4g
Carbs: 36.8g
Fiber: 6.7g
Protein: 10.4g
Aaand here’s more info (with a pretty graph)! From http://www.fitday.com/.
The pie graph shows the percentage of fat:carbs:protein. Ideally, in a day, there would be:
Carbs: 45-65%
Fat: 20-35%
Protein: 10-35%
So this is would ideally have a little less fat, and more good carbs. 🙂

Hope you try this quick delicious and nutritious snack!
What do you use as a pre/post workout snack??
Have a happy, healthy and blessed day!
