1. Add Peanut Butter to a Banana

This is truly one of my favorite combinations. I either cut a triangle shape indent out of the banana and fill it with peanut butter, cut it into slices and dip it into peanut butter, or just slab some peanut butter on top of the banana have a bite, and keep doing that till it’s gone!

2. Spread Peanut Butter on Waffles or Pancakes

Now, don’t knock it till you try it! Most of us know people eat peanut butter with celery, but my favorite is eating peanut butter with carrots. It is just like peanut butter with celery, it’s actually pretty good! I saw a friend do this in college and I have hoped on the carrot peanut butter train with her.
