National Peanut Butter Day

January 24, 2011 by Julie 80 Comments

As some of you pointed out to me through Twitter and this morning’s post, today is National Peanut Butter Day! How could I have missed that!?

In honor of this amazing holiday (yes, holiday), here are some of my all-time favorite peanut butter recipes:

  • Peanut Butter Pretzel Truffles
  • Pumpkin Peanut Butter French Toast

Pumpkin Peanut Butter French Toast

  • Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies
  • Apple, Peanut Butter and Granola Sandwich
  • Peanut Butter-Stuffed French Toast
  • Cinnamon Peanut Butter Roasted Chickpeas

And there’s always the classic peanut butter finger. I don’t need a fancy recipe to enjoy a swipe of the good stuff!

Lunch

Peanut butter managed to find its way into my lunch today in the form of peanut butter M&Ms!

Peanutty

Lunchtime appetizers included a fun size (that term is debatable…) packet of peanut butter and peanut M&Ms. PB M&Ms are definitely my favorite kind of the little chocolate candies. They trump all others! (Side note: They should totally make caramel M&Ms.)

After I got my chocolate fix, I enjoyed a childhood favorite: English muffin pizzas!

EMP

Served with a sliced red pepper and a tumbler full of hot tea, this lunch was the jam!

Put a Lil' Pep in Yo' Step

The Meal Deal

So happy that red, yellow and orange peppers were on sale at the grocery store this weekend! 😀

Fashion Page Update

I am trying my hardest to figure out how to create a dynamic fashion page for PBF. I have no idea how to post posts to pages, so if any of you out there have the know-how PLEASE let me know! Some baked goods may be in your future if you can help me figure it out. Yes, that is a bribe… 😉

Until then, here’s a glimpse at today’s ensemble.

Monday Outfit

  • Lace dress: Velvet Touch (via Marshalls)
  • Black cardigan: Guess
  • Brown leather belt: J.Crew (A Christmas present from my sister. Thanks, Leslie!)
  • Black tights (with an unseen hole in the tookus): J. Crew
  • Boots: Colin Stewart (via Victoria’s Secret)

See ya for dinner my peanut butter-loving friends! 😀

I'd love to connect with you! I am always so grateful when you let me know you tried one of my recipes or workouts and tag me in your photos or updates. Thank you so much!!!

    I love english muffin pizzas! I have this great Italian seasoning blend grinder that I always use to top the pizzas off with some extra zesty flavor.

    PB M&M’s are awesome! It’s a tie between those and Reese’s Pieces for me!

    Peanut Butter M&M’s are definitely the best kind. And they SHOULD make caramel ones!

    your boots are great. do you like the leather?? I was thinking of ordering the blue/grey or the rust flats. Are yours the ColinStuart Leather riding boots?? So much easier to order off line if you “talk” to someone who already has them. ha. Thanks!!

    ps They are on sale at the moment 🙂

    You look super cute! I told my local librarian yesterday was National Peanut Butter Day, she thought it was a joke until I made her look it up on the internet. She was like “wow you learn something new everyday”. I felt very smart.
