PB2

If you like the taste of peanut butter but not the fat and calories, give PB2 a try. In short, its dehydrated peanuts. It's not as nutritionally sound as any of the fresh nut butters, but it tastes great in my smoothies.

  • I'm in LOVE with PB2! I usually put a tablespoon of it into my protein shakes to get that PB flavor without all the extra calories. The Chocolate PB2 is awesome, too. :-)

    I LOVE peanut butter. I keep trying so hard to like PB2 but I hate it. It sort of smells like PB but it doesn't have the correct consistency and it tastes like absolutely nothing at all to me. I really wish I cold like it. I just do not get why others do.

    It's a great addition to oatmeal, too. Yum.

    This has been a godsend to me because I love peanut butter in my smoothies in the morning, but it jacks the calorie count way up. The chocolate peanut butter is yummy too!!! I have never tried it any other way, but I have heard it isn't very good if you use it as a spread...

    I love PB2! I like to eat it on celery with a little bit of strawberry jelly. Yummy.

    I have found it in the original and in chocolate! Good in smoothies, but the chocolate is very good spread on rice cakes.

    I like to mix it into non fat plain greek yogurt and add sliced strawberries.

    I enjoy it a lot! I tried it on a rice cake and it tasted like peanut butter to me. Are those who do not like it following the water to PB2 ratio on the label? If so well that is a shame you still do not like it.

    I want to try these this week!

    I bought both the regular and chocolate off of Amazon. The chocolate is not very chocolate tasting to me, but I do like it. I'm not on a smoothie craze right now but I have added it to almond milk with chia seeds and it makes a pudding. I've also added it to ripe banana and oatmeal cookies.

    I like the creativity of adding it to things other than a smoothie. Thanks for these creative tips

    if you mix it with sugar free syrup it makes a great toast topper or a dip for apples or any fruit you like to dip. I personally use smuckers suger free syrup. :love:

    That'a exactly it. I tried it alone and ew! But it's a good low cal addition to a smoothie or oatmeal
