    Peanut butter and honey!!! Right on the spoon! The key is don't lie about it. If you're eating 4 tbsp instead of 1, track it in your diary.

    I also love peanut butter.

    I make my own peanut butter protein bars for dessert treats. It's a sweet treat that isn't chock full of sugar and junk (if you use natural peanut butter).

    Mix equal parts of peanut butter, honey, and protein powder. Press into a glass pyrex baking pan. Freeze. Cut into small squares. Store in freezer in ziplock bags. Consider this a special treat on days when you need to satisfy a sweet tooth and need a protein boost to rebuild those worked out muscles!

    Has anyone tried the Better'n Peanut Butter brand? This one is 100 calories for 2 TBL. I can't seem to find it in my area (no Trader Joe's here).

    I do use PB2 - I do like it in some things - not so much in others.

    Yes. I love Better'n Peanut Butter. I eat the low sodium kind and it is delicious and low-calorie! I've found it at other whole foods type stores and some grocery stores. Visit their website and see if they stock it anywhere near you.

    Thank you! There is a store nearby that carries it - not my usual but I will go there. Now I feel like a dunce!

    Im going to have to look into those lower cal PBs. I adore PB.... especially on an apple. Yum! I stopped buying it because the hubs can destroy an entire jar in a day. Hes been known to slather it on a cheese burger too. I love PB but not that much! ick! Maybe he would leave a lower cal one alone. haha

    my weakness and my love!!!! :drinker:

    mmmmm Nutella and PB sandwich!!! I eat a spoonful of PB before bed every night...I have a tendency to not be hungry until late in the day, and then I am ravenous, so it helps with any remaining hunger pains. Plus I have heard that if you are going to eat before bed, you should have protein :smile:
