I've only had Nutella twice. It's yummy but I don't eat it because of the sugar and it's not healthy.
I have a little more then half of a 13 oz jar left and I have no idea what to do with it.. recipes or what to spread it on would be great! ( I won't be eating it. I just want ideas and stuff to make for my family )

    sandwiches for your kids.
    It's not an ingredient, it's a spread.

    I swapped out Nutella for Justin's chocolate hazelnut butter (you can buy it on Amazon or on their website www.justinsnutbutter.com), which tastes pretty darned good but has much less sugar. I spread it on a toasted English muffin or eat it with slices of apple... on rare occasions, I melt it in a saucepan and stir in some Fiber One Honey Clusters cereal. (I more often do that last one with Justin's Maple Almond butter and a few chocolate chips with the cereal.)

    I use dark chocolate dreams natural peanut butter from Peanut Butter & Company.

    I put it on pretty much everything from bread to fruit to pretzels to protein bars/shakes.

    Aside from that, I also use it to make no-bake protein bars. I use a variant of this: http://worldfitnessnetwork.com/worlds-best-tasting-fastest-healthiest-homemade-protein-bars/ Where I use whatever I have on hand and want to use for dry ingredients. I like sunflower seeds, textured vegetable protein, and sometimes ground flax seeds.

    It's good in crepes. I prefer it with pretzels, bread, or just a spoon.

    Toasted wheat english muffin, half a tablespoon of natural peanut butter (no added sugar), half a tablespoon of nutella, and half of a banana.

    French toast. Spread nutella on while grain bread, top with sliced bananas, then another slice of whole grain bread. Dip in a wash of vanilla extract, milk (or sub, I use coconut milk or vanilla unsweetened almond milk) and egg (or whites). Fry on a griddle.

    I love it on a slice of whole grain toast. Spread it as soon as the toast pops up while it's warm and it's extra delicious.

    It's good on pretty much anything you can put it on! I love peanut butter and nutella together!

    Most might consider this a no-no, but we make plain muffins and put a teaspoon of nutella inside. If when you make the muffins you substitute sugar and fat with apple sauce, they aren't too bad health wise.

    I spent summer 2010 eating Nutella with slices of apple everyday.. omg it's awesome! If you''ve ever had apples and peanut butter, this is 1000x better.
    too bad I put on 10-15lbs that summer. LOL. I never bought a jar after.

    Take some wontons wrappers put a dab of nutella in the middle of them, fold them over, and fry them until they are crisp/browned. Top them with a sugared mint leaf and dust with powdered sugar. So nommy!

    nutella cookies!!

    Mix together 1 cup of nutella, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1 cup flour and one whole egg. Form into little 1in balls on a cookie sheet and press down to make them flat then bake at 350 for about 7-8 mins:) super easy and delicious

    Nutella should be a controlled substance. I solely blame Nutella and Arrowroot cookies for my Freshman 15. I cannot be trusted around that stuff... It just cannot enter the doors of my home :P

    I personally think it's way to sweet. The only reason I keep a jar in my house is 1. I wanted to try it and 2. To sabotage other family members that are on a diet. I like to be the smallest in the family >:D

    I've never bought it but I used to think it was somewhat healthy from how it was advertised. Ha!
