Cathy Isom tells us about some of the many ways of celebrating the salty, sweet and nutritious snack that pairs with just about everything. That’s coming up on This Land of Ours.
Celebrating National Peanut Butter Lovers Month
For all of November, it’s National Peanut Butter Lovers Month. The perfect time to satisfy all of your peanut butter
cravings.
It’s becoming quite obvious that this salty, sweet and nutrition snack can be enjoyed on just about
everything. On Toast, waffles, pancakes, in smoothies, as a fruit or veggie dip, and even on pizza! That’s right, a
small pizza chain in Minnesota created its own pizza topped with pizza sauce, peanut butter, extra cheese, pepperoni
and jalapenos.
Peanut Butter has also been spread on hamburgers, cheeseburgers, mixed in scrambled eggs, paired
with a banana and rolled up in a tortillas or as a quesadilla, and, also as a snack mixed in yogurt with different kinds
of fruit.
Whether you prefer it the old fashioned way in a PB&J or simply by the spoonful right out of the jar, peanut butter is a heart healthy food that may reduce the risk of colon cancer, helps protect your memory, and is high in protein and potassium.
