Id like to give thanks to whoever's post I stumbled upon a few weeks ago that suggested mixing Greek yogurt and peanut butter.

You, random MFPer, have given me the most awesomest snack in the history of awesome snacks.

I take one small tub of greek yogurt, mix in some vanilla extract, stevia, cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice and 1-2 Tbs of peanut butter.

Fluffy whipped peanut butter goodness in a dish. And protein heaven.

    Even better stats if you use PB2 (powdered peanut butter)
    You can even add PB2 to protein shakes since its dissolves really well in a blender bottle -- no blender required.

    It could be you, do you eat it with the exact same ingredients?

    I've started using lowfat greek yogurt as a substitute for a lot of things, adding to pb to make a dip for celery, pretzels, sub for mayo and sour cream in other dips. I <3 pb&yogurt!:)

    Has anyone heard of the Jimmy Carter smoothie? It's 1C milk/yogurt/frozen yogurt with one banana and 2 tsp of PB - so good!
