Let's Get Down to Bee's Knees

Happy Friday chicas!!!!  Thanks for all the sweet comments on yesterday's post. I really had a great time and wish you hotties could have joined me in the St. Patty's Day celebration ;)  OH and I will definitely be trying your strawberry smoothie suggestions, they sound soOo GOOD!

Let's get down to Bee's Knees!!!

I was running low on PB, so after the gym it was vital to make this quick buy. I was so tempted to get White Chocolate Wonderful or Dark Chocolate Dreams, but since I gave up chocolate for Lent I had to withhold on those temptations *sigh*.  I had never tried the Bee's Knees (p.s. I am obsessed with the name, haha). The Bee's Knees is a mix of PB and honey, which is perfect because I won't be needing to add agave to my PB and toast!! 

Inspired by HungryGirl's Dreamy Chocolate Ravioli Puffs, I decided to make my own version sans the chocolate :( We can call these Decadent PB Empanadas! 

All you need is: 

1.  Won-ton Wrappers 
2.  2 tbsp of PB 
3.  Any additional ingredient to put your signature touch ;)  (I decided to add strawberries and almonds) 

What ingredient would give it your signature touch?

• Heat up strawberries in a pan with a splash of almond milk until tender. 

•  Let strawberries cool for a couple of minutes. Then combine strawberries with 2 tbsp. of PB. (here you can add any crunchy texture you would like)

•  I used these wontons.

• Filled squares with about 1/2 tbsp. of filling. 
• Moistened all four edges of the won-ton and fold enclosing the filling.  I used a fork  to seal the edges. 

f

• Place in freezer for 1 hr. 
• Bring large skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium heat. Working in batches, place frozen wonton flat in skillet, evenly spaced, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until slightly puffy. Then flip for another 1 to 2 minutes. 
• Let them cool for a bit, add toppings, and Voila!!

They turned out soo goOod! Mmm... the PB & strawberry mixture just melted in my mouth, and the crunchiness from the wonton and almonds was phenomenal!

It was a perfect dessert after lunch :)

Any fun plans this weekend????
