Peanut butter and banana wraps. Sometimes I'll drizzle honey if I'm feeling extra.3

Halo Top ice cream and Enlightened bars. I preferred ChillyCow, but it has been discontinued.
Also I'm really into cocktail shrimp. I get them frozen from Publix when they're BOGO and defrost one tray at a time. It's a ton of protein for very few calories, and they are delicious after a hard workout.0 -
Creme brûlée filled doughnut with burnt sugar crust. I make it and a second random flavor fit every Sunday, even if I have to forego other snacks or have much lighter meals later in the day. This week’s random flavor was chocolate, with peanut butter and marshmallow fluff filling, and peanut butter frosting with what tasted like pulverized Nutter Butters on top. I so look forward to Sundays now, lol.3

That's funny, we're having similar cravings! I just discovered how amazing tortillas with peanut butter and honey are in the air fryer, they're even better with chocolate chips! I'm banning myself from peanut butter, I've gone through a crazy amount since I discovered this.1 -

My grandma used to make that for me when I was a kid for a late-night snack! Except she'd fry it with butter and add powder sugar, so total sugar bomb xP I feel you on that peanut butter. I heard PB2 was a lighter alternative, but I can't get behind the taste. I'd rather indulge :P0 -

Ugggh, agreed! It's so good that my colleague and I have been comparing brands and recipes (like virtual wine tastings lol).
Generally, I like it best on baguette with cheese though. 😋
I just bought some of this. I should have ordered the spicier version - it just taste like a plain marinara-pasta sauce...hoping for a hit of spice w/some smokiness/lemon.0 -

Vegan sausages made from soya protein.
I've always avoided vegan food and meat substitutes, but I'm starting to change my mind. They taste as good as pork sausages, but are healthier - I base my food choices on taste and nutritional information, I'm not bothered whether I eat animal products or not. But I've actually been eating vegetarian now for 5 weeks.0 -

Healthier? How?
I like those too, Lightlife and Yves my favs, but healthier??? Nope.
It depends on what you're comparing.
Here are the numbers for 2 of my new favourite vegan sausages:
Energy: 157kcal
Fat: 7.8g
Saturates: 0.8g
Sugars: 1.8g
Protein: 15.5g
Salt: 1.2g
And for 2 of my old favourite pork sausages:
Energy: 361kcal
Fat: 21g
Saturates: 8.2g
Sugars: 9.2
Protein: 23g
Salt: 2.7g
Admittedly, the pork sausages are bigger, but even when you compare per 100g for both, the vegan ones still come out as much better. I guess it depends on which brands you are comparing, but for me, based on what I was buying before, it's definitely a healthier swap.

Not entirely sure why we're arguing? All I was trying to say is that it's a good swap for me. It doesn't matter how heavy something is, I'm not going to swap 1 sausage for a multiple of another sausage like 1 point something - on a straight 1 item for 1 item swap, I'm reducing my calorie intake. And I'm sure there are other brands that are much higher or lower in calories, but they aren't ones I buy, so they're not relevant to me.
I didn't post labels etc because they're really specific local brands here in England. As I said, the pork sausages are from my local butcher.
I've never tried soya protein sausages before, and I enjoyed them, which was a revelation to me, but I apologise for how I have seemingly said something controversial.

Well I agree with what you are posting. Personally I love tofu, tempeh and edamame. I generally do not eat meat substitutes, but when I do or if I did I do go for plant protein from pea, rice protein, etc. I stay far away from gluten for sure.
Do what works for YOU. What one person considers healthy is often different than another person. Avid meat eaters will usually think meat is healthy while most vegetarians would not4
