NtvTxn 1,262 Posted April 1, 2013 I've been hearing about PB2 at support groups and even seen where people have posted about it here on our forum. Today I finally, after almost 3 yrs., gotten some. Now what??!!! I just mixed up a serving 45 CALORIES vs 200 calories!!! I smeared it on a graham cracker, I have to say, it's pretty darn good. I am use to Natural Peanut Butter, and it's only salt and peanuts....so this is not much different, 1 gr of sugar per serving is the only difference. It does taste different, but it is good. To me, it's like I picked up a different brand than what I'm use to. What else can I do with it? Any ideas, suggestions? I'd love a recipe to bake peanut butter cookies! Something a little lower fat!!! 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sarsar 824 Posted April 1, 2013 I like to make a Protein Shake out of it. I mix a couple ounces of skim milk, 4 ounces of Water, a scoop of chocolate Protein Powder, 1/2 small banana, 2 Tbs PB2, spinach, and a dash of vanilla.< /p> 1 NtvTxn reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SerendipityHappens 1,594 Posted April 1, 2013 I like to add just a pinch of salt and stevia to mine.. Like TEEENY pinch.. Then I like to eat it with "banana ice cream" that I make by running a frozen banana through my auger style juicer with the blank plate on (you could also make the banana ice cream by putting a frozen banana in a vitamix with a few splashes of milk) OMG.. it's heaven! I've seen some people using PB2 to make Protein bars.. (like with oats, milk Protein powder and pb2) Once I'm at that stage I'll give it a try. 1 NtvTxn reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NtvTxn 1,262 Posted April 1, 2013 Thanks y'all - great ideas! Just an FYI - type in PB2 from Pinterest and there are a LOT of recipes. Some would be fine for us, others we'd want to avoid, but there are recipes!!! You have no idea how excited I am that I finally gave this a try!! I also got bananas, not to use with this, but just because. Will work out great! 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpaceDust 585 Posted April 2, 2013 PB2 is great if you want something that's good and peanutty without all the extra "stuff". I sprinkle it on things, I've been known to make a peanut sauce with it to have with curry seasoned chicken if I want something reminiscent of satay, it's all good! 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
