PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter



Recommended Posts

I recently purchased the Bell Plantation powdered Peanut Butter. I had really high hopes for it as so many people here love it. My jar of PB2 tastes more like whey Protein than PB. I mixed it with milk and yogurt (separately) but had no luck, and at $7 a jar, I really want to make it work. Help please!!! :P

Hey KAB...One of my favorite recipes to use PB 2 in is a chicken Thai stirfry dish.

Just take about a lbs of chicken (dark or white meat) and dice and saute in a little olive oil. Add about a tsp of minced garlic, stirfy veggies, 1/8 cup lite soy sauce, 1/2 onion either diced or strips, and add a couple of tablespoons of PB 2 to the mix. It gives it such a nice flavor.

I also use PB 2 in a lot of my Protein Shakes.< /span>

Hope this helps

i use it in my Protein shakes...that's all i really use it for, but it bumps up my Protein Shakes to 30g and helps me get in the protein i need each day. it does need to be stirred several times before i finish it, or it'll settle to the bottom; i've been using it for several months and appreciate the Peanut Butter flavor in my shakes.< /p>

I also use the powder in my steel cut oats. I make up a big batch of them and freeze in serving sized dishes. I take them out the night prior to using and add the powder, raisins, chopped dates, etc.

I don't think addinging it to milk or plain yoghurt would taste that good. When I do add it to Protein Shakes I add splendra. I don't think PB2 contains any sweetener so it's just peanut powder. Since PB2 is defatted peanut dust it's not going to taste all that great by itself. As they say fat is where the flavor is! My sister who is not banded spreads jam on a piece of bread and then sprinkles PB2 on the jelly. She thinks it's okay I've never tried it that way.

I can't eat it like regular PB but I do like to mix it in things. I really like it stirred into vanilla yogurt. I use about 3 TBL and it makes it thick and tastes like a mousse.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
