Description
PB&J has been a favorite combination for decades. Creamy (or chunky!) peanut butter mixed with a fruity jam is the perfect comfort flavor mix and we’ll take any chance to put it to good use. But what if I told you that a sandwich is not the only way you can delight yourself in this combo? That’s right, this PB&J Chia Parfait (originally from the first version of The Friendly Vegan Cookbook) is the healthiest possible version of these classic flavors and we think it might make it to the top of your favorites list.
