Creamy or Crunchy Peanut Butter?

[mckeev5]

I decided not to vote because I love them both!! MMMMM! I love Jif!

I like creamy - the kind that needs to be stirred.

It looks like the votes are pretty evenly spread across the two.

One of my favorite topics! I got a recipe for oatmeal that I have used almost every day for the last couple months.

1. cup water - bring close to boil - reduce heat

2. add two tablespoons fat free/sugarfree pudding mix

Mix 1 and 2 completely

3. 1/2 cup quick oats

cook for 3-4 minutes constantly stirring. Take off heat and add 2 tablespoons of peanut butter ( I use Teddy's Old Fashioned Peanut Butter - crunchy)

This is UNBELIEVABLE!!! It is filling and keeps my hunger in check.

This sounds unbelieveably good. My two favorite things, oatmeal (which I eat every morning to keep my cholesterol down - and it works I might add) and PB!!!! This is my breakfast in the morning!

I love crunchy best but love both. I have a "love/hate" relationship with PB because it is my #1 binge food during PMS or stress time. I have been known to eat a half of a jar at one sitting, then can't touch the stuff for a month. It has been a while since I did that thank goodness. I also prefer the low-fat to the regular (not that that makes any difference when you are eating a half of a jar!! LOL)

I just finished this and it was GREAT!! Thanks for posting this recipe. I would have never thought of putting pudding mix or PB in my oatmeal. Now I am thinking of other possibilities.

This does sound good - what flavor pudding did you use?

 

[luvtorun]

I used vanilla fat-free/sugar-free. I usually put two packets of Equal in my oatmeal when I am using fruit but you really don't need any other sweetner if you use the pudding mix. That definitely sweetens it enough. Too sweet for me this morning, will skip the Equal next time.

I forgot the most important part you won't believe.

The pudding is CHOCOLATE sugar free/ fat free.
So the oatmeal is chocolate/peanut butter!!!!!!!!!!

no choc. pudding mix in the house ... I am going to the store today~~

Had to chime in on this thread again... can you tell I am obsessed with oatmeal... LOL... I tried 1 T of PB and my MIL's SF strawberry/fig preserves in my oatmeal this morning. I like this combination on a PB and jelly sandwich sooo..... it was fantastic. I am definitely going to try the choc. pudding with the PB when I can get to the store to pick up the choc. pudding.
