Comments:  The Lean Green Bean had a brilliant idea of making puppy chow with almonds.  I am so happy I found this recipe on Pinterest and was able to make a lower carb version.  I was running low on Swerve powdered sugar substitute so the coating isn't as snowy white, but still delicious!  It was suggested that this recipe can also be made with almond butter instead of peanut butter and I think that would be just as delicious!
