My First Pure Bar

The ever elusive PURE bars have finally found their way into my life.

Well, atleast one has.

Abbie had placed a Chocolate Brownie PURE Bar in my Runner’s Easter Basket and I was very excited to finally try the bar as my snack this afternoon.

I have heard mix reviews of the bar. They are very similar to Larabars and seem to have the same reputation. Some hate them and some love them. I honestly was a bit scared during m first bite, but I have to say I really enjoyed it. It was very rich and reminded me of a Little Debbie’s Brownie. It was thick, dense and very chewy.

I am interested to try other flavors of the bar in the future, but for now I am happy to have a second Chocolate Brownie Pure Bar waiting for me in the pantry.

Thanks again Abbie for all of the goodies!

Easter Lunch left overs once again played a big role in my dinner tonight.

My Aunt had baked a TON of sweet potatoes for Easter and as I was being encouraged to take my weight in food home with me yesterday Kath’s Nutty Vanilla Sweet Potato & Kale Soup immediately flashed in my head.

Tonight I re-created Kath’s soup but with the addition of Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Onion. It was just as delish as the last time I made it and was truly the perfect way to use up the baked sweet potatoes.

With the soup I also had 2 small piece of Publix Whole Wheat Toast that I accidentally let go to long in the toaster.

I had been toting around one of Jasmine’s Chocolate Chip Coconut Blondie with me all weekend and as I was unpacking my traveling food stash I knew this was going to be my dessert this evening.

It was slightly smooshed, which honestly made it a little better.

Now I am off to finish up some laundry and unload the dish washer. Could my Monday night be anymore exciting? lol
