Why I Love This Recipe
This peanut butter yogurt dip snack box brings me back to childhood lunches, where peanut butter and apple slices were a staple. But this version is better: it’s smoother, creamier, and packs more protein thanks to Greek yogurt. It feels indulgent without being heavy, and it’s just as fun to eat as it is easy to prepare.
Just like my 3-Ingredient Emergency Chili, this recipe proves that sometimes the simplest combinations make the biggest impact.
