I told you I have been experimenting with eating as a vegan a few weeks ago. Well, so far so good. I have lost a few pounds, feel great and am loving all of the food experimentation. Unfortunately, I have not been as avid with my camera these days...something is wrong with the focus and it is driving me nuts. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It's enough to drive me (more) insane.

So, my recipe testing will need to continue and I'll just have to perfect the great things I have been making: miso udon, taco salad, and those chocolate chip cookies I mentioned a few days ago. (The best!)

This experiment, the vegan peanut butter dream bars was a success.

I started with Oh She Glows recipe for vegan Twix...but modified them a bit. To me, these are nothing like a Twix but more like a salty sweet chocolate covered peanut butter rice crispy treat--pretty much a dream come true. Hence the name, peanut butter dream bars.

I prefer these cold...a little hard, right out of the fridge.
