I really enjoy these and TRUST me they will help you GO...my advice try one at home or night before bed...just to see how it effects your system...would hate for you to be at work running back and forth...just my .02

Hey MAJOR Flirt...these sound soooo yummy!!!! I love peanut butter.  Do you use reg peanut butter or all natural?

Hey Beautiful...I used the regular peanut butter.

-Rob

You're good for my ego...thanks!!!

I'm going to try to make these this weekend. Do you eat these in place of a meal or just add it in as a snack?

Where the heck do you get Flack Seeds???

Hey sweety..anytime you know that!

I had them as a snack at night before bed...I cut into smaller pieces to decrease the calories.

I get the Flax Seed "Meal" at Whole Foods...again make sure you get the "MEAL" NOT the SEEDS themselves..

-Rob

Hey Sweetheart!

Yummy! Sounds so good!

Can you make these for the pool party on July 25th? Pretty please?

Love you!

Me

These sound good!!

A helpful FYI: Make sure you keep the flax meal in the fridge or freezer -flax goes rancid easily.  If you buy it whole it should stay fresh longer and once opened should also be stored in the fridge or freezer.  You can grind it in a coffee grinder whenever you need some!

I made a version of Shari's otter bars and they were good - I will make a version of these too for sure (I say "a version" because I always change recipes as I go!)

Peanut Butter is so yummy!
