    Sounds like a great way to get a little fat in my yogurt. I've been having a hard time finding large container of Greek yogurt that aren't 0% fat.

    I wonder if this PB idea would work with So Delicious coconut milk yogurt?

    I just made this and it was awesome! My husband tried it and he said it tasted like peanut butter fudge w/o so much of the sweetness.
    I did not add ANY sugar.
    I used Full on fat Walmart Brand Creamy Peanut Butter.
    And I used Dannon Greek.

    Trying to figure out how to input this. I am not going to use 1/4 C per serving thats for sure. I was thinking of 2 Tbsp per on english muffins.

    HELP?

    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.

    This! It's very tasty too! I bought a couple of jars on amazon, in chocolate too. PB2 is delicious! :-)

    I have a similar recipe I use for breakfast now and then, but I use PB2...so maybe a bit less peanut buttery & more yogurty:

    1 single-serving pack of Chobani plain fat-free greek yogurt (plain keeps the sugar down)
    2 tbs PB2 (chocolate flavor)
    1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder
    add a little stevia if you want some extra sweetness

    Mix it all together--yummy, high-protein, low fat, manageable sugar!
