Honey Mustard Pretzels
How about this hurricane? Anyone on the eastern side of the country has been hearing about Sandy for the past week and most of us are hunkering down to weather the storm today. In Boston, schools are closed, office building are closed, and people stayed off the roads.
I actually got up and started driving to work since our office isn’t closed today. The roads were eerily empty. About half way to work, I decided it wasn’t worth risking a commute home over the Tobin with hurricane-force gusts and turned back home. I am working from home most of the day and so far, haven’t had any issues (we’ll see what happens as the day progresses). I hope everyone out there is staying dry and safe.
While sitting at home working I always tend to snack. It must just be because I’m home and there are always baked goods or other treats in the house. When I’m at my desk, I don’t snack that often, but at home, forget it. This morning, I have been snacking on these Honey Mustard Pretzels.
It wasn’t my plan. I had hoped to keep them around until the weekend, but they’re just so addictive. They come together in a snap and disappear just as quickly. These are perfect for sitting around watching football, handing out Halloween candy, or working from home in my case.
After a couple days, mine started to lose a bit of their crunch, so I just popped them back in the oven for another 15 minutes and they crisped right up again.

I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
I’m disgusted…….but intrigued. LOL It sounds like it wouldn’t work…but as a fellow PB&J lover, I’m going to try it pretty soon. I wonder how it would all be with chocolate drizzled on top. Too much?? LOL

Ahh I should have checked my Google reader before I had breakfast! I was craving a PB&J sandwich, but only had stale bread..=( I ate it anyway.. but this would have been so much better! I need to try this.
Hmm, I’m not sure about this one… 😉
not gunna lie…thought this was weird but i’m sorta tempted to try it! num nummm, i’m obsessed with pb…so how could it be bad?
i love pb & j…but im not sure if i’d love it that much on eggs…..
sorry!
When I saw this in my google reader I was like “whoa someone else makes PB&J omlets.” I had posted about them so long ago I forgot, but I’m so happy to have someone else who loves the combo!
I’m loving all the comments today. Like I always tell Hubby, don’t hate it ’til you try it!
This is funny because my hubby often eats egg whites with peanut butter on top – apparently it’s a big body builder thing to get the right ratio of fat and protein – haha, so you’re not alone, I can imagine he’d love the jelly with this too!
And I really like your top 30 post – very inspiring!
I can kind of see how this works! I made pb&j stuffed french toast once, and this is kind of like that, minus the bread. Like a low-carb pb&j! I might have to give it a shot 🙂
