I am loving peanut butter at the moment and would love some ideas on what to do with it aside from eating it in a sandwich

Thanks in advance:smile:

    I put it in oatmeal, on bananas with chocolate chips and bake it, in cookies, and use it in a peanut sauce (with chicken, noodles and veggies)

    My go-to snack for the moment is half a mashed banana, about 1/2 cup of oats, and a few chocolate chips mixed together and scooped out onto a baking sheet like cookies. Bake at 350 and flip after a few minutes to get both sides baked. I've been adding in a little bit of peanut butter when I have some extra calories for the day, and it makes for an AMAZING snack that satisfies my sweet tooth :)

    I've come up with several different calorie counts, but with 1 tablespoon of chocolate chips and no peanut butter it comes out to around 300 calories for four small cookies.

    Mix one table spoon peanut butter with some sugar free chocolate pudding and microwave for about 10 seconds. Tastes like a Reece's!

    My newest quick and easy snack is 1/2 tbsp of peanut butter and 1/2 tbsp of Nutella on the same spoon and down it.

    Be careful, peanut butter is very calorie dense. 190 calories/16g of fat for 2tbsp. Some people think of it as healthy or a protein source but it can easily ruin your diet if not consumed in moderation. I could easily eat a whole jar of peanut butter if I wanted, and would eat it in every meal if it was low in calories & fat

    peanut butter is good melted. I usually take 2 tsps of pb, melt in microwave for maybe 10-15 seconds. ( be careful not to burn it) Then you can use it for a dip with strawberries, grapes, anything. Lately I been eating with almonds too! :laugh:

    Put PB on anything--apple slices, graham cracker, rice cake, wasa cracker, banana slices--and sprinkle with cinnamon.

    That company has some good different kinds of peanut butter. The white chocolate wonder and the dark chocolate dreams are great. I just eat them off the spoon.
