    I have been stirring a tsp or 2 into my Bob’s Red Mill 7 grain hot cereal along with a little honey – it is really good. I love peanut butter – I make green smoothies that have peanut butter or almond butter a lot too.

    We are some serious peanut butter lovers in this house. I haven’t tried all of these ways to use it though. I love it in smoothies, sandwiches and desserts and snacks. Thanks for sharing more ways to use it with us at Countdown in Style! Don’t forget to stop by Friday to see if you are featured 🙂
