    I have to try that. I love Better 'N Butter PB but its expensive. Its low cal and low fat and I think all natural. Its also harder to find where I live, so this sounds like another good alternative.

    For as long as the yoghurt keeps, provided you keep it airtight and refrigerated.

    Have you ever tried PB2?

    It is powdered peanut butter that you mix with water and very comparable to regular peanut butter taste.

    The only problem is that I can only find it online at bellplantation.com and it is a little expensive for me because you have to buy in bulk. They sell them for $15.96 + shipping and handling for 4 jars of the peanut butter.

    Anyway, it is 45 calories for 2 tbsp instead of 180 calories.


    Buy it on Amazon.com. Good price for 16 oz!

    You may want to try Netrition. You can buy in smaller quantities, and the shipping is very reasonable...especially is you stock up on lots of product. It's a flat shipping rate, no matter how much you buy.

    Will definitely try this. I make my own yogurt, so this will be awesome!

    FYI -- You can strain regular yogurt to get it the thick, creamy consistency of greek yogurt. Use a cheesecloth, flour sack towel, etc in a strainer. Dump it in and stick it in the fridge until you get the consistency you want. Then just scrape it out. If it's thick enough, it will just plop right out of the cloth.
