    I like it in smoothies with almond milk, frozen bananas, and choc. pb protein powder. It's also good mixed in ricotta with some cool whip.

    I love chocolate peanut butter. Reese's are my favorite candy. The only way I use my PB2 is in my shaker cup with a scoop of chocolate protein & %1 milk. A great way to get my chocoPB fix!

    I have tried mixing it with water to make "peanut butter" but could never get the ratio of H2O to PB2 right & the viscosity was always WAY off so I gave up. LOL

    yay!! I"m glad to hear some good things too. For those of you that mix it with the oatmeal, how much do you put in there, a full two tablespoons and just add the regular amount of water to make the oats? thanks for all the good ideas

    Yes - just follow your regular oatmeal routine & stir in PB2 at the end ...... I like original PB2 in oatmeal sweetened with maple syrup.

    Stir PB2 into pancake batter. Really nice with whole wheat mix ..... yummy

    Mix with water and use as a dip for McIntosh apples.

    Forgot ...........good mixed into vanilla greek yogurt .... throw in some Grapenuts cereal.

    I bought some and barely use it. I don't like it in my protein shakes and I haven't attempted to bake with it yet.

    Well,I just tried it mixed with water to get a feel for it. I love the original one and the consistency was really close to regular peanut butter. The chocolate one has a great taste but is a little thinner when just mixed with water. I made Emily Bites Green PB banana smoothie and it was amazing!!! I will try with my oatmeal tomorrow :flowerforyou:

    I mix it in my protein shake, but occasionally when I have a peanut butter craving I'll mix up a little to eat straight. The peanut taste fulfills the craving, but the texture keeps me from eating half the jar like I can do with normal peanut butter! I also like it sprinkled on apple or banana slices.

    Protein shakes and smoothies, sprinkled on fruit, mixed in with ice cream, in a vanilla flavored milk of choice with protein powder shaken in a blender bottle, blended with vanilla milk of choice, powdered vanilla bean, and a lot of ice.

    Mixed in smoothies or overnight oatmeal = yum!

    As a peanutbutter just mixed with water it's pretty meh. A little oil helps the consistency.

    I like it best mixed with water and used like a dip for veggies or fruit.
    They say you can mix it with plain greek yogurt and it tastes like peanut butter mousse, but I don't like greek yogurt and thought it was awful that way.
    Love PB2, going to mix some up right now :love:

    My favorite way at the moment is mixing it with plain Greek yogurt. The trick is to add some type of sweetener to it to counter the sourness of the plain Greek yogurt. Try different ratios to find what you like. What I like is 3/4 cup yogurt, 3 tbs of PB2, and 2 packets of sweetener.

    I really like it! I mix it in with some plain greek yogurt and throw some fresh fruit on top. It's also pretty good in steel cut oats.
