What do you do with PB2?

I have my own order on its way from Amazon, but visit www.dashingdish.com for lots of recepies using PB2! Again, haven't gotten it yet but I plan on using some of her recipes to start off!

I make my own granola so I add a jar when I make up a batch. It's goooooooooood.

I post this recipe everywhere:

I make the basic overnight oats recipe adapted for triple chocolate, banana/and-or coffee, and peanut butter O.O.s and it is so good I think about making it for maybe two meals a day.

Ingreds added to mason jar in this order:

1/3 cup chocolate almond milk (40 cals)
1 T unsweetened cocoa (10 cals)
1/4 cup old fashioned uncooked oats (75 cals)
1/4 fat free fage plain greek yogurt (33 cals)
1 T chia seeds (60 cals)
1 T ground flaxmeal (30 cals--optional, but gives the concoction an almost cookie-dough consistency, which I like)
2 tsp honey (30 cals)
6 T chocolate PB2, mixed with water in a separate bowl BEFORE adding to jar (135 cals - because I like PB2)

Shake, then add:

1/2 banana, sliced, then stirred in (45 cals); and/or:
2 tsp ground coffee, stirred in (0 cals)

Chill overnight, and seriously consider setting your alarm earlier than normal to enjoy earlier than normal.

Mix it with greek yogurt and dip fruit in it. It's a good post or pre workout snack for me. Protein + healthy sugars.

Drop it in smoothies as a "protein powder".

Use it for the filling in homemade dark chocolate pb cups.

Hell. Anywhere I would use regular peanut butter.

Never thought about putting it in greek yogurt! I'm going to try that next time. I usually just make up and dip apple slices in it

eat it in large quantities JK. I mix it in my protein shakes.

Peanut butter is one of my TOP FIVE FAVE FOODS, let alone guilt free so I'll stick with my Smucker's Natural PB. I know some ppl who use it primarily use it in their shakes...I heard reconstituting it with water to eat as regular peanut butter hasn't been so successful for most ppl lol

I eat it with apple slices.

Mmm light chocolate syrup, almond milk, banana, pb2 and protein powder...mmmm a reason to exercise, earning that smoothie

I added a tablespoon to my homemade ice cream. I use one can of Thai coconut milk, add 6 teaspoons or packets of truvia, 3 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa, 1 tablespoon of the PB2 and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Used a hand mixer to mix it up really good and then pour it in my cuisinart ice cream maker. In no time at all I have some really delicious sugar free ice cream.

Sounds Yummy!!!!

I don't know if any of you brew your own beer, but I have a buddy who uses it to add flavor in the hops process......

1 cup almond milk + 1 tbsp PB2 + 1 tsp cocoa powder....tastes like I am drinking a recess peanut butter cup....

I might have to try this sometime. Sounds really good; and that is my favorite candy bar

My favorite way to eat it is in a bowl of steel cut oats. I use 1 serving (1/4 c.) oats, 2 Tbsp. PB2 (or chocolate PB2) and 1/2 to 1 tsp. of raw sugar (or 1/2 Tbsp of honey or 1 Tbsp of maple syrup). For a treat throw in a Tbsp of chocolate chips or dried cranberries. Tastes like a warm oatmeal cookie. :happy: It's also great in many of the baked oatmeal recipes.

I also like it in smoothies. And I've recently tried it as an addition to banana "ice cream", and it was wonderful. (Mix one frozen banana, 2 Tbsp PB2, and 1 Tbsp cocoa powder with a blender or stick blender till smooth.)

I also like adding it to baked goods of various sorts. It's quite tasty in pancakes.

I just ordered both the PB and cocoa from Amazon... I can't wait to try it in my morning smoothie!
