I received my order of PB2 and the chocolate one as well, 2 days early. This morning, I used it in my protein shake and loved it. What is your favorite way to use it?

    Michele - How do you dip sliced apples? In the powder? Do you sprinkle it on the apple slices? Or do you add water to it?

    I just cut my apple using an apple slicer...you know where it cuts your apple into nice even wedges and leaves the core in the middle...and then I cut the wedges into bite size pieces and using a fork just dip the pieces in the powder. I usually measure out 2 Tbsps of the PB2 and I can get two apples out of that. You do have to be careful though not to inhale as you're putting the apple in your mouth. All that powder goes straight to the back of your throat...no good.
    I suppose you could just reconstitute it and spread it on ~ I just haven't tried it that way yet.

    My favorite way is to add it to oatmeal. If I have the calories I'll also add some dried cranberries. Yum.

    I like it in protein shakes too.

    Someone suggested trying it in plain yogurt. I found it a bit too tart for my tastes. Though maybe I'll try it again and add a bit of honey.

    I think my next mission with it is to try and make a savory low-fat peanut sauce (for stir fry).

    I absolutely agree! I would LOVE to make a chicken in peanut sauce recipe from this. If you figure it out, would you please post it?

    Michele - Thanks for the apple info.

    Hmmm... hadn't even considered oatmeal. I do steel cut oats in the crockpot overnight. I am thinking this would be an amazing option, especially if I used the PB2 Chocolate. Thanks for the idea!

    I had to make dessert for a party so I made a PB2 cream pie. It was the hit of the party!

    1 graham cracker crust
    1/2 cup PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter
    1 4-serving package Kraft Jello-o Brand Fat Free Sugar Free Pudding, Vanilla or White Chocolate
    1 4-serving package Kraft Jello-o Brand Fat Free Sugar Free Pudding, Chocolate
    3 cups nonfat milk, divided

    Mix PB2, vanilla or white chocolate pudding mix, and 1 1/2 cups nonfat milk well. Immediately pour mixture over graham cracker crust. Mix chocolate pudding mix with remaining 1 1/2 cups nonfat milk. Pour carefully over peanut butter mixture. Refrigerate for at least three hours before serving.

    I mix it in plain yogurt and I dip just about everything in it (mixed with water). The directions are on the back for the mix between water and PB2.

    I have heard about this but haven't had any luck finding it? You said order received...is this something that has to be ordered online?

    I use it in my Shakeology and also use it with apples (mixed with water). The pie recipe sounds delish and so does the peanut sauce!! YAY! Thanks for starting this thread! Oh, and here is a link to it if you guys have questions: http://store.bellplantation.com/?Click=53789
  • Love my PB2! The chocolate is even better! I've made a PB cheesecake with it and used a couple of the recipes from the PB2 website. I swear anything with it is good. I add it with some cocoa to my sludge too. :heart:

    I'm expecting a shipment of this today too. I think I may blend some in a chocolate protein shake. I'm dying for something that tastes like a Reese's Peanut Butter cup!

    Add 1 tbsp to a vanilla yogurt 100g container like Source or Silhouette (35 cals0 and dip apple slices in it. It's like dipping apples in PB but you get 4x more dip than with peanut butter alone and its sweeter.

    Yep, I put it in my chocolate shake mix. It's great in there. I also sprinkle it over apples. the jar needs a shaker top.

    their website has some pretty tasty looking pancakes in the recipe section
  • This is the first time I've heard of this, and I think it's absolutely brilliant! Might have to order some.

    I was sooo excited when I found this at a local pharmacy.. I got home mixed some up ( with just h20) and it was NASTY!!!! Am I doing something wrong??

    I absolutely love this mixed in my double chocolate protein shake. It's a good amount of PB flavor for 45 calories and I think it is 5g protein. Delicious! I agree about the shaker top observation. I think I am going to get a spice jar and put some in there to sprinkle over bananas or pancakes or oatmeal, etc.

    Thanks for all the ideas on how to use it.

    I don't really like the taste of it either, but it's good if you put it in recipes....alone I agree NASTY!

    I use this recipe and sub PB2 for The other peanut butter to make the Asian Peanut Noodles with chicken, then I make a side order of PB2 for dipping. Yummy. http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/04/asian-peanut-noodles-with-chicken.html

    They have recipes on their site.
    I also love it in a protein shake, vanilla or chocolate.
    Or I mix it into plain Fage yogurt with cocoa powder.

    I love to mix it up with a dash of Ideal sweetener and a couple of pinches of cinnamon. For all those who dislike it, how thick/thin are you mixing it? I made some too thin by mistake, I usually just eyeball the amount of water, and it was FOUL, just horrid. So, mix it up super super dry/thick if you haven't been.

    I think the PB2 is too expensive and was loving Trader Joe's peanut flour when they carried that. I recently found and purchased some peanut flour from iherb.com $9 for 2 lbs, and free shipping on orders over $20.

    I like putting it in smoothies as well as adding it to muffins and other baked good type things. I also make my own versions of these two recipes:
