Yay for Fiber (One that is)

So this months assignment for the AllRecipes Allstars Brand Ambassadors was to make Fiber One Chocolate Peanut Butter Haystacks.  These were so easy to make.  No bake, and you can involve your kids in this project.  They turned out really well.  I took them to work and everyone loved them.  I did put a twist on some of them and made them with white chocolate and Heath's Toffee Bits sprinkled on the top.  Hubby loved these and kept a few back for himself.  Here is the picture

We were then challenged to create our own recipe using Fiber One.  I decided to make a savory recipe and here is my creation:

This was surprisingly good.  A little sweet for me but then most things are.  I definitely do not have a sweet tooth.  I served them as an appetizer with some zesty ketchup.  They could easily be served as a main course with the addition of rice or pasta maybe.

Me being the person that I am, could not just stop there, could I.  No, I had to take it to the next step..  could not stop while I was ahead,  so, I decided to make some turnovers.  I had some fresh pineapple and oranges in the fridge, so I thought they would make a good filliing.  I make a quick puff pastry that is fairly easy thaat uses about 2 and 1/2 cups of AP flour.  I decided to replace one cup of the flour with Fiber One cereal crushed in my food processor.  Here is the result.

To be fair they did taste fine, it is just that the pastry did not "puff"  You won't find a link because I didn't post this recipe.  Had tons of fun cooking though and my hubby and friends had tons of fun eating the results.  I am looking forward to next month's assignments.  Will let you know the results.  Thanks for reading my blog
