I'm so glad that the work day is moving right along! Besides Peanut Butter Puffins, I've got Happy Hour on my mind! Can't wait to be outside in the sunshine enjoying a cocktail! :)
Lunch today was spaghetti squash with some Walnut Acres Tomato & Basil Sauce. (Keeping it simple today!)
Also part of lunch: 2 juicy plums! I hadn't eaten a plum since last summer, so honestly, I was kind of excited to eat these today! They were sooooo delicious!
Oh boy. I really don't like to bash products on my blog, but I feel the need to "warn" you guys about these Yotta Bars. I had the Apple Cinnamon flavor with lunch today, and it was not at all tasty. The bar was bland and did not have a strong apple flavor. It actually had a very strange aftertaste... not at all sweet like I was expecting. The bar contains a serving of vegetables, so maybe that's what I was tasting? Or maybe it was the flavor that I chose-- perhaps their other bars are tastier? Sorry, Yotta Bar!
The bar was also visually unappetizing. I had 2 bites and tossed the rest. Sadly, I am not a fan of Yotta Bars. I'll be sticking to Larabars in the future!
Lunch all together...
I was bummed about the Yotta Bar, especially since I like to have something sweet at the end of my meals, and the Yotta Bar did not satisfy that craving one bit. Instead, I decided to dig into the office candy bowl for a handful of plain M&Ms. They hit the spot!

I haven't left a comment before but I read your blog all the time...
I just bought "no pudge brownie mix" (bought from stop and shop) and there's a method that you can make a single serve brownie instead of a whole tray (for fear of eating the whole tray!)....
It was AMAZING, so moist and doughy, if you eat it right away out of the microwave.
I ended my lunch with it and just thought of this blog because you're a dessert fiend (in a good way).
All you do to make them is add fat free plain yogurt + vanilla extract (or vanilla yogurt)...For single serve, 2 tablespoons of the brownie mix + 1 tablespoon of yogurt, microwave for a minute!!!. I couldn't believe how easy and delicious.
I haven't had spaghetti squash since winter - looks delish!! Especially with that tomato & basil sauce - yum!!
Have you ever tried pluots or plumcots?? They're kind of like plums...
Larabars > other bars ;0)
Jessie,
I love the No Pudge Brownie Mix! I haven't had it in awhile though. Thank you for the reminder! I'm going to buy some next shopping trip! :)
The bar just looks gross! How did it smell?
I definitely would have had some M&Ms, too! Have a great weekend!
Sorry you didn't like the Apple Cinnamon bar. Have you tried Cherry or Orange Yotta bars? Cherry is our #1 best seller. I would be happy to send you and your readers free samples. Send an email with a snail mail address to info@undercoverveg.com and mention this blog.

Dang, Yotta Bar found you fast!!
for anyone looking for a good apple cinnamon bar i highly recommend the one in the genisoy organic line. the best way to describe these bars is a cross between a clif z-bar and a lara bar. they're delicious and have a good nutritional profile too. give one a try if you come across them!
