Peanut butter and jelly pizza
This is a fun PB&J-inspired snack that incorporates fresh fruit to boot! Just cook some pre-made or homemade pizza dough and spread peanut butter on it once it’s cooled. A tortilla would work as a base for this snack as well. Then drizzle some jam or fruit spread of your choice on top of the peanut butter, and top it off with some fresh fruit like strawberries or blueberries. All that’s left is to enjoy!

Frozen peanut butter berry pops
This is a sweet and salty way to cool down on summer days. Just blend together peanut butter yogurt, milk and honey until smooth. Then pour the mixture into molds no more than half way full. Cover and put in the freezer for about an hour. Next, stir together some berries and fruit juice (this recipe uses raspberries and orange juice) and pour it on top of the frozen mixture. At this point you can put your ice pop sticks in. You could also add some hemp seeds for a little extra texture! Cover and put the molds back in the freezer until completely frozen.
