I bastardized this recipe and made it peanut buttery and into muffins.

I used chunky peanut butter to add a bit of texture (I didn’t have nuts) and I used 1.5 tsp of baking soda since I didn’t have baking powder ? Ignore the picture that says it’s creamy pb. It is chunky. And yes, I know that baking soda doesn’t replace baking powder, not taking feedback at this time. I also added a pinch of salt not seen in the recipe.

They’re pretty good! Regular sized muffins, banana and hand for scale. I ate one with a laughing cow cheese wedge and another I smeared a bit of peanut butter on. Both good. Cream cheese would hit if I had it. Or butter, or just plain.

When I remake them, I will add in whole oats or nuts or something to give them a bit of texture, the chunky PB wasn’t enough. You can also 100% omit the peanut butter for calorie purposes or use PB powder for the flavor, I truly just wanted to use up the peanut butter and bananas in my house. I do fear the og recipe would be too dry and bready for my tastes in muffin form, so I may stick to the peanut butter lifestyle.

I used the Modern Mountain oat fiber. I feel like this is probably not actually 0 calorie, but whatever. Again not taking feedback at this time, unless it is scientific and informative about how soluble and insoluble fiber operate inside your stomach, in which case I will accept.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine dry ingredients. Add in wet ingredients. Mush around. Add to muffin tins. I baked for 22 minutes and when I saw them looking close to that picture of them in the oven, I checked them with a toothpick and the toothpick came out clean so I stopped baking then. Serve warm. Profit.

Going to be spending June 23rd - August 5th in Europe, starting in Paris and ending in Reykjavik. I've only ever been to Italy (will not be visiting on this trip) so it'll all be a first time for me.

I am a fast-paced traveler who doesn't mind spending just a couple days in a place if it means I can get the highlights (the top touristy stuff) and then a few more down to earth local-type activities in. I am the kind of traveler who spends 12 hours walking around a city solo to explore and have done this for weeks before. Of course, I have the luxury of time with this trip so the places that really NEED more time can be given that.

I am going to fly into and obviously stay in Paris for a few nights. I'm thinking 4 days will be enough for me. Then I would like to travel another part (or some parts) of France but I'm not sure where. I need to be in Reims by July 2nd until July 5th, but otherwise I'm flexible. I was thinking Nice, but that may not be the most time-efficient choice? Any ideas? I love cities, art, culture, nightlife; I also love the countryside, hiking, nature, beaches. So kind of down for anything here.

Then from there I am thinking Belgium, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Germany, Prague (not necessarily planning to spend time elsewhere in Czechia, but willing to be convinced.) I will be making my way to Scandinavia, Norway... I am undecided on Sweden and Finland?

Any recommendations in terms of best way to organize this trip or must-sees in any of these countries would be appreciated! I wont be traveling in luxury by any means but I don't have a tight budget, going to be staying in hostels and relying on public transit whenever possible and skimping and splurging where it feels worth it. I plan to rent a car in Iceland.

And any advice on if I should nix some of these countries to prioritize making my way to Spain, or save Spain for its own trip someday? TIA!

I know, it’s a bit like asking which steakhouse a vegetarian should visit. But I’m visiting my friend here the first time and she doesn’t drink and I’m not a crazy wino myself although would have a glass or two if the occasion called for it. I’ve never been to a winery but this seems to be a huge attraction for the area. Any places that you’d recommend nearby that have more than wine to offer - eg excellent food (points for gluten free options for my friend), beautiful views, fun activities, etc?

Any other recommendations that would suit a laid back visit for two friends in their 20s would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
