A New Take On Good Ole PB&J

Oh man I love PB&J sandwiches. Only problem is your typical peanut butter is 5 points for just 2 tbsp, OUCH! Well let me introduce you to the solution. It’s called PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter made by Bell Plantation and it is amazing. It is made from USA grown peanuts that have been pressed and powdered to remove 75% of the fat calories. What this means is that you can now have 2 tbsp of peanut powder for one point. Now that is MAXIMIZING your points!







I just mix 2 tbsp of PB2 with some sugar-free jam, to reconstitute it, and spread it on some bread. I also like taking a banana and mashing it then mixing it with a tablespoon or two of PB2, delicious. You can use it to create a great peanut sauce for noodles or use it in baked goods. Just click on the link above to order it online.

Hi, Emily here. We used to be in the Pines Ward and Wendy sent me your blog address. So, this peanut butter interests me because my husband and I LOVE PB&J and are trying to shed a few pounds. Where do you buy it... or did you order it off their website? I think I might just have to try it!
PS: I loved the tip about the WW yogurt too.
