    Has anyone tried this with regular/vanilla yogurt to get rid of the "greek yogurt taste"?

    I did:

    3TBL peanut butter (90 cal/T)
    1 individual serving of Dannon greek yogurt (80cal)
    1/4 tsp cinnamon
    2tsp stevia

    64 cal/ 2TBL serving

    for a peanut butter spread, but at 60cal/ T it might seem smart to add some honey

    Gotta try this, I usually eat a Chobani yogurt every day and try to mix different things in. I have not tried peanut butter yet.

    PB2 in vanilla yogurt is also a delicious dip for apples.

    Fage is a very good Greek Yogurt. I find it at my Kroger in the section where the organic foods are.

    I have to try that. I love Better 'N Butter PB but its expensive. Its low cal and low fat and I think all natural. Its also harder to find where I live, so this sounds like another good alternative.

    For as long as the yoghurt keeps, provided you keep it airtight and refrigerated.

    Have you ever tried PB2?

    It is powdered peanut butter that you mix with water and very comparable to regular peanut butter taste.

    The only problem is that I can only find it online at bellplantation.com and it is a little expensive for me because you have to buy in bulk. They sell them for $15.96 + shipping and handling for 4 jars of the peanut butter.

    Anyway, it is 45 calories for 2 tbsp instead of 180 calories.


    Buy it on Amazon.com. Good price for 16 oz!

    You may want to try Netrition. You can buy in smaller quantities, and the shipping is very reasonable...especially is you stock up on lots of product. It's a flat shipping rate, no matter how much you buy.
