Unfortunately, I didn't really like this one. Even though it was a French version, it was too much like PB&J for me.

Thought about doing it with PB, but, wouldn't that have just been a PB&J with nuts sprinkled on it...so I would have still had the American weight and not the advantage of Nutella!Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04961759869836998539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4643462473890837525.post-28070604246031977642012-02-10T09:14:25.408-08:002012-02-10T09:14:25.408-08:00If only American kids were eating PB&Js! They...If only American kids were eating PB&Js! They're eating chicken nuggets, french fries and dripping pizza. Actually, Nutella isn't all that unheathly. It uses skim milk, and chocolate isn't bad for you in moderation. I wouldn't call it health food, but I'd rather serve nutella on bread than pink slime nuggets. Your drizzly nutella topping is pretty in that last photo. :)SoupAddict Karenhttp://soupaddict.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4643462473890837525.post-26855194459484266272012-02-10T05:54:11.395-08:002012-02-10T05:54:11.395-08:00Great minds think alike - I used croissant too!

I have several European friends (all of whom are skinny), and I noticed that while they don't mind dropping a pretty penny on rich, buttery, and fattening foods, they also buy just enough to fill up and not a mouthful more. They also seem to view eating the food as secondary to meal-related gatherings; they're there mainly to be social with everyone else and interact. It still irritates me that they're so skinny though!

It's the silliest thing, but I never would have thought to slice a croissant that way. I agree--nutella is not a healthy snack. I've noticed that the commercials for it always say that it's a way to get your kids to eat healthy foods, like whole wheat bread. Not that it, itself, is healthy. It sure is delicious, though.Eihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06002642692299774106noreply@blogger.com
