    Peanut butter is glorious!! Make room for it, and don't cut it with anything! Ack! :) My breakfast typically consists of a whole wheat english muffin with 1 tbsp PB and banana slices. Noms!!!!! :D

    So for lunch I sauteed some chicken and balsamic onions i've made... and thinking back to this thread, I added in both peanut butter, AND PB2.

    Also don't bother with reduced fat PB, roughly the same calories and way less healthy fat all the same bad fat, just don't do it.

    I can't allow normal peanut butter into my life, for the high sugar content. I settle for monkey nuts, and the occasional salted KP.
    I know Thailand, and Asia use peanut butter in their cooking. I think, it's called Satay.

    Furthermore, I don't eat anything that contain Palm Oil, because, I don't agree with damaging the natural habitat where Orangutangs live.

    I've always wanted to try one of those.
  • I love peanut butter as well, and use it daily on a multigrain english muffin. I don't understand how 1 tbsp isn't enough though. I made a point to fit the 2tbsp in once and could barely eat the muffin WAY TOO MUCH pb.

    peanut butter is so expensive here that i just make my own! it's just raw peanuts, a little salt, a little sugar, water, and the tiniest bit of oil, in the blender/food processor! it doesn't taste quite like the processed deliciousness, but i still think it's really tasty, plus way cheaper and way healthier!

    as far as cutting it goes, i've never tried this, but i imagine a plain low-fat yogurt and/or some kind of bean (in a blender) like white beans or red lentils would add content (& protein) without adding too much extra weird flavor or calories? just a possibility... xx
