    I mix some in with my Greek yogurt, I put it some of my protein shakes along with frozen strawberries and other frozen berries. I've put it in instant oatmeal as well.

    I made PB2 and chocolate chip yogurt pancakes for breakfast the other morning. I basically used the pancake recipe off a chobani vanilla yogurt container, and added a few tablespoons of PB2 and mini chocolate chips.

    I've made fruit smoothies for the kids using PB2. Coconut/Almond milk, banana, frozen strawberries, frozen blueberries and PB2.

    I just recently started using PB2. I really enjoy it mixed with water and used as a dip. I've also added it to plain homemade yogurt and to fruit smoothies with plain protein powder.

    Once, because I was in a rush I used 2 Tablespoons of PB2 with 1 scoop of plain, un-flavored, protein powder mixed with about 8 ouces of water. That I do not recommend!

    Check out Bell Plantation's website. There's a whole recipes section.

    PB2 was absolutely one of those discoveries that was life changing for me!!! :)

    Seriously. As ridiculous as it might sound it's so true.

    I just made some yummy 100-calorie chocolate almond oatmeal balls by mixing together oats, almond butter, chopped dark chocolate, whey protein powder, and enough water to hold it all together. I've never had PB2 but I imagine you could substitute it for the almond butter (with more water).

    Honestly, tastes pretty good to me on a spoon! Or on a banana. Or as a do-it-yourself peanut butter cup with 2 squares of dark chocolate.
    I frequently use the chocolate PB2 mixed with plain non-fat greek yogurt - seriously yummy!

    I love it mixed with yogurt, mixed with almond milk on noodles (yum!!), or just mixed up and eaten with a spoon.

    2 tbsp PB2 mixed with one single serve cup of sugar free chocolate pudding. OMG! Its so thick, creamy, and delicious. You can eat it just like that, but if you put it in the freezer for a bit, it hardens up like ice cream. You can also spread the chocolate peanut butter concoction on graham crackers and top it with sliced bananas. A sprinkle of cinnamon is optional but tasty.

    I made these brownies the other day and mixed PB2 with water (I'll mix it with almond milk next time) and used that instead of the real thing on top (to save calories) I also cut the sugar used down to 3/4 cup. You can eat a 1/9th of the pan for like 130 calories. They were so yummy, almost fudge like.

    I also mix the chocolate PB2 with vanilla yogurt and granola and raspberries in the morning. So yummy.

    I also put cut up overripe bananas in the freezer then throw them in the blender with the chocolate PB2 mixed with a little water and blend until smooth. Peanut butter chocolate banana ice cream.

    I discovered if I mix mine with almond milk it tastes MUCH better than mixed with water. Almond milk is pretty low calorie, and you only use a tiny bit, so the fat and calorie content is still way lower than regular full fat peanut butter!

    Yes, completely agree, so nice and creamy with almond milk!

    Excellent idea.

    I got a new blender for Christmas and made a smoothie for a night snack! It was delicious!

    1/4 cup milk (I used whole)
    1/2 banana
    1/2 cup strawberry halves
    1 1/2 tbsp pb2
    1/2 cup ice

    It was so yummy!!!

    I bought some PB2 because everyone raves about it but now I don't know what to do with it! Anyone have any good recipes to share for smoothies, treats, or anything really using PB2 and/or PB2 with chocolate?
    Get rid of it and replace it with real peanut butter? Seriously, the healthiest part of peanuts and peanut butter is the fat, PB2 removed it. So you're eating a highly processed version of something that was processed to remove the healthy part of it. Pointless.

    My favorite sugar-free dessert is pumpkin purée mixed with fage 0%, cinnamon! and topped with 2T of pb2 mixed with almond milk. Pretty low cal, low carb, beta carotene, protein, low fat plus fiber. Definitely a dessert I don't feel guilty eating.. Love pb2. :)
