Summertime cooking is one of our favorite pastimes and something we look forward to every year. This month, we got a little adventurous with our fare and gave some of our usual recipes a twist — a Perfect Bar twist, that is.
You’ve seen it in cookies and smoothie bowls, but there are endless possibilities for Perfect Bar to take the place of peanut butter and almond butter in some savory dishes, too. The way we see it, substituting Perfect Bar not only gets you the creamy, nutty taste you’re looking for, but tons of bonus nutrition, thanks to the 20+ superfoods!
Check out these yummy, summertime recipes to make this season’s epicurean adventures absolutely perfect.
