Seeing as peanut butter on a rice cake IS the highlight of my diet I thought I would share some peanut butter secrets with you!
These are my TOP three FAVE peanut butters: Peanut Wonder, Naturally More, and Peter Pan
You can PROBABLY guess that Peter Pan is NOT on my diet plan, but it is soooo yummy and my fave regular peanut butter choice so I had to include it!
Peanut Wonder is AAAA-MAAAA-ZING! It taste more like a dessert than peanut butter. The downsides are you HAVE to keep it in the fridge, and while it tastes amazing it doesnt necessarily have that real peanut buttery goodness. Yes, I know I could heat it up, but I like to grab a spoon and go right for the peanut butter, so heating it just adds one too many steps for me!
Peanut Wonder is ONLY at Publix in their GreenWise section. I have a fellow team member that seriously buys every jar everytime her Publix has it in stock. Out of the three peanut butters this one has a LOT less fat and calories. Only 2 fat grams per TWO tablespoons compared to 16 fat grams like normal peanut butter! That is NOTHING! My friend says it is because Peanut Wonder is made with SOY and TAPIOCA ingredients that make it sooooo low fat?!
Naturally More is hands down my fave regular natural peanut butter (taste the most like good ole' peanut butter). The GREAT thing about Naturally More is that it has flax seeds and Omega3s all ready in it, so I dont have to take flax oil and ground flax seeds when I eat Naturally More. Naturally More has 11 grams of fat per 2 tablespoons. You can find it at Wal*Mart, and SOMETIMES Publix.
Oooh Peter Pan...how I loooooove Peter Pan! I however don't love the 17 grams of fat per two tablespoons :(
So thats my opinion on peanut butter!! I have tried MULTIPLE other natural peanut butters, and can say without a doubt, Naturally More and Peanut Wonder are the BEST! Now go grab your spoons and have a scoop for me!
Try the fresh ground peanut butter. They have it at Publix now, and of course at Fresh Market and New Leaf. Can't beat it with a jar! And since it's fresh, you know there's no additives, preservatives, etc. Just peanuts! Sooooo good. :)
ReplyDeleteI have not tried the Peanut wonder yet but I do enjoy the Naturally more. :)
ReplyDeleteHey Katie! I am in love with peanut butter. Your post has really helped me, because monday I am starting my diet and workout plan for changing my whole lifestyle. Your blog has encouraged me in so many ways watching how you have trained and changed things. I am going to have to try these peanut butters, they would be better than having my reduced fat Jiff. Thanks!
