Celebrate March 1 with one of America's Favorites!

peanut butter toast

March 1 – Write it down.  It’s….National Peanut Butter Lover's Day.  What better way than a day to celebrate America's favorite sandwich spread.

Did you grow up loving peanut butter?  What was your favorite thing to go with your peanut butter?  Mine was toast.  Nothing beat a toasted peanut butter sandwich.  M-m-m-m

Peanut butter is a fantastic protein source.  It’s full of vitamin E, and is a strong anti-oxidant.  It also contains the right kinds of fats – the mono-unsaturated fats that help to lower your cholesterol levels.

When choosing peanut butter, reach for the natural peanut butter containing 100% peanuts, or try Alton Brown’s homemade peanut butter, which will make you wonder why you ever bought it in a jar.

Natural peanut butter will also help you to avoid added sugar, salt, and hydrogenated fats.

Here’s a quick list of the top reasons why peanut butter should top your shopping lists:

  • Deserving of its National Day, Peanut butter can be used in so many recipes – from desserts to main courses, beverages, sauces, appetizers…it’s not just for sandwiches anymore!
  • It’s cheap!
  • Its shelf life is longer than you might imagine.  Natural peanut butter can sit in your fridge for months!
  • It’s filling, the stick-to-your-ribs kind of satiation.
  • Back to those mono-unsaturated fats again – it’s healthy!
  • Nutrients – Vitamin E, anti-oxidants, good for your skin, high protein
  • 100% pure, natural Peanut Butter means NO additives or preservatives.  Check your labels for 100% nuts.
  • Convenient – how easy is it to slather some on some toast or celery sticks!

Check your pantry or your refrigerator.  If you haven’t got a jar of peanut butter handy, run to the store.  March 1st is just around the corner – and it’s time to celebrate in sticky, peanut butter style.

When I was a kid I liked mine spread on a hot dog bun, with a whole banana in the middle and drizzled with honey!   Now that I've experienced a few too many birthdays, the carbs would kill me so I enjoy my peanut butter on celery sticks!!

I remember growing up, my brother's favorite milk shake was Peanut Butter!  There was a little place just outside of Aberdeen, WA that served them up on the way to Westport.  My fav at the time was black licorice.  EWWWWW!

Cara....'Simply Jiff' is my fave;  it is good & there is no chocolate [as in Reese's PB Cups].  there is a trade off with this choice in low sugar & sodium with the fat content. I use only Smuckers Sugar-free Orange Marmalade as a combo.  Want to cut down the calories---no bread LOL
Great fun post--brings the sunshine inside.  Have a great week.
