Have you heard of George Washington Carver and how he discovered different uses for the peanut? I LOVE THIS MONTH already; and this round-up looks delicioso.
Oh yes! I am a big fan of George! ;)
PNB makes everything taste better. You really can’t go wrong with any of these yummy
Yes they all are so amazing!!
I love peanut butter! Those PB n J cups are for me! Bookmarking for later.
Don’t they look amazing!!! So good.
OMPBG!! Yep, peanut butter deserves it’s own version of OMG. The blondies and that blizzard and of course the classic cup, but those Superfood Bites are what is calling to me most right now–like a truffle and a pb cup combined and turned healthy! I like that you added in some savory too since peanut butter does both so well :)
Thanks girl! I don’t know where to start with these recipes!!! They are all SO amazing.
Ok, I need to try all of these! Love it all, sweet and savory.
Yes do it!! They’re all soooo good.
What a great round-up of ideas- I am a huge peanut butter fan!

Oh em gee, everything on this list looks absolutely amazing! I can’t wait to try them all (especially some of those desserts, yum). Thanks for including my thai buddha bowl!
So welcome! It looks amazing!! :D
I am most definitely team EITHER. I love both chunky and smooth. I would love to make some of these recipient and add some protein powder to them too – specifically the peanut butter biles. I also love to take frozen bananas and place them in the food processor with a giant scoop of PB, blend, add a few chocolate chips – and eat. It’s like a chunky monkey ice cream, with no dairy!
Same here….ALL peanut butter is GOOD peanut butter to me!! :D
I love pretzels and peanut butter together. I want to make some peanut butter balls and add in crushed up pretzels to roll them in. But have small bits of pretzel in the peanut butter balls. Do you have a recipe for something like that?
I don’t right now…but I could certainly come up with one!!
That is awesome..looking forward to seeing one soon.
It all looks great! Oh my oh my oh my – I want this!! Had to pin this dish! Thanks for sharing on the What’s for Dinner link up!
