Honey is the only sweetener used in these (high-protein, flour-free) white bean bars. This is a rich peanut buttery bar which does not taste at all like white beans. Great for peanut butter lovers.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Generously grease 7" by 7" baking pan.
- In food processor, place 1 1/2 cups great northern beans, 1 cup peanut butter, 2 tablespoons honey, baking soda, and vanilla and puree until completely smooth.
- Taste and add additional honey, one tablespoon at a time, pureeing and taste testing after each addition, as desired. Taste testing is necessary because both peanut butter and honey vary in sweetness. (I use only 2 tablespoons of honey because I prefer my bars to strongly taste of peanut butter.) Mixture should taste like rich peanut butter and not taste like great northern beans, honey, or overly sweet. Allow food processor to blend for 3 to 5 minutes without stop to emulsify.
- Pour batter into deep bowl. Add eggs and combine with electric mixer. Add chocolate chips and combine with mixer.
- Pour batter into greased baking pan. Evenly sprinkle kosher salt over top of batter. Bake until slightly firm on top and edges pull away from the sides of the pan for 20 to 25 minutes.
- Allow to cool slightly and cut into 8 pieces. Eat while warm. Store in refrigerator or freeze. Peanut Butter Bars are still delicious when they are eaten slightly cold.
PEANUT BUTTER-GLAZED SALMON AND GREEN BEANS
This fast and fun weeknight meal reveals an unexpected use for peanut butter, transforming it into a savory five-ingredient sauce. The pantry favorite is combined with tangy lemon juice, fragrant ginger and toasted sesame oil to create a rich, supernutty glaze that pairs well with fatty salmon. Here the salmon is roasted on a rack of green beans, but a bed of broccoli florets would be an excellent alternative. The sweet-salty glaze can be made a day ahead and brought to room temperature before using.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 450 degrees. On a large rimmed baking sheet, combine green beans, scallions, garlic and 2 tablespoons of the neutral oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss to evenly coat, then spread in an even layer.
- Prepare the peanut butter glaze: In a small bowl, combine peanut butter, lemon juice, soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil and 1 tablespoon water. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk until smooth.
- Rub salmon with the remaining 1 tablespoon neutral oil and season with salt. Arrange salmon on top of beans and spoon half of the peanut butter glaze on top of the fish. Roast for 5 minutes, then spoon over the remaining glaze. Roast until salmon is cooked to medium and beans are crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes more, depending on thickness.
- Divide salmon and beans among serving plates. Top with peanuts and serve with lemon wedges.
