Crazy Richard’s and a Leg Workout…Posted on January 26, 2011 by Kathleen

Oh Hump Day, how nice to see you! Despite the fact that it is snowing outside and supposed to snow all evening, I was pretty excited that my breakfast was Oats in a Jar! LOVE LOVE LOVE when this happens. Yep, I love my oats!

Crazy Richard’s is my peanut butter of choice these days. I discovered them in Shop Rite a couple of months ago. I was looking at all of my choices and the ridiculous prices that companies now charge for almond butter and natural peanut butter. But I noticed Crazy Richard’s and that a normal size jar was not only under $4.00, but the ingredients also only stated: PEANUTS! I laughed out loud and immediately put it in my cart. I’ve been using them on a regular basis and make sure to check out their blog for some of my recipes and where to buy their products. THEY ARE AWESOME!

So on this snowy morning, this was my “Oats in a Jar” recipe!

Absolutely delicious, filling, nutritious!

PB Popcorn

Posted on by

If you haven’t tried our Heavenly Crunch (or Buckeye Crunch as we Ohioans refer to it as) – then you are totally missing out!!  It’s PB, Chocolate, Popcorn and Carmel!  HELLO!!  Is there anything better in the world??  Get yourself a case of it HERE.  Don’t worry, the entire case can easily be consumed in a very short amount of time. If you’re in Ohio, stop by my moms candy store (The Sister’s Sweet Shoppe) and try some free samples!  I am confident you will leave with your arms full of Heavenly Crunch.

But if that still doesn’t work for you – try this recipe Christy posted over at The Girl Who Ate Everything.  This is the perfect Christmas treat for those cold winter nights by the fire.  MMMM…. PB goes with EVERYTHING!!!!

PB Popcorn

1/2 cup unpopped popcorn or 16 cups popped popcorn
1 1/2 cups dry-roasted peanuts
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup corn syrup
1 cup all-natural Krema PB
1 teaspoon vanilla
Pop corn and remove any unpopped kernels. Place in a large bowl and stir in peanuts. (Jennifer pops hers in a 9X13 pan and keeps it warm in a 250 degree oven)
In a heavy saucepan, combine sugar, honey and corn syrup.  Bring mixture to boiling, continue boiling for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.  Do not boil too long or your popcorn will be rock hard. Remove from heat.
Stir in peanut butter and vanilla.
Immediately pour over popcorn and stir to coat.
Serve warm or a room temperature.

Another Review & a PB Banana Pudding Recipe

Posted on by

We received another rave PB review from the Peanut Butter Boy himself!  haha!  Check it out here.

(he likes to add kosher salt to our PB!  silly boy ;-) )

AND the PB Boy recommends using our all-natural Krema PB in such scrumptious recipes as this PB Banana Pudding…

PB Banana Pudding

Ingredients:

1 cup nonfat plain greek yogurt, regular yogurt or sour cream
8 oz (~3 cups) nonfat frozen whipped topping, thawed for 30 minutes
2 cups skim milk
1/3 cup creamy unsalted peanut butter
2 small packages nonfat (sugar-free) instant vanilla pudding
30 vanilla wafers or ginger snaps
2 bananas, in 1/4″ slices
shaved dark chocolate, to garnish

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl whisk together the greek yogurt, peanut butter, whipped topping and milk until no clumps remain. Stir in the instant pudding until well incorporated and mixture begins to thicken.

2. In a large glass serving dish or trifle bowl, form a layer of vanilla wafers, flat side facing up. Cover with a thin layer of pudding, followed by a layer of banana slices. Add another thin layer of pudding and repeat. Or get creative by pudding (hah!) some wafers against the wall before adding the next layer of pudding for a nice presentation. Top with a few vanilla wafers and garnish with shaved chocolate and/or fresh berries. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

(Check out this recipe on the PB Boy’s website here.)

More Peanuts to Add to the Nutty Family Tree!

Posted on by

Hey all,

Y’know how I am always saying that my family is full of nutty people?  And I’m always joking around about how everyone else is so crazy?  Well, I guess I need to fill ya’ll in on my Nutty Situation…

I’m pregnant with TWIN BOYS!  IMG_1370

(Me & my hubbs holding an ultrasound photo of the twinlets)

I already have two little girlie peanuts (ages 3 & 4) and now we’re expecting two boy peanuts some time early next year!  I know, I know.  We are CRAZY!  Yes, I guess the peanut doesn’t fall too far from the tree….IMG_1341

(My cutie pie family after we just cut open two blue cakes to reveal we are having boys!)

Y’know whats even crazier?  I am not the first one in my family to have multiples!  My cousin Margo has TRIPLETS!  Yes, you read that right.  Triplets.  They just turned 8!  I’ve tried to tell you – my family tree truly is full of NUTS!!Where_did_the_8_years_go_

(Margo’s eight year old triplets :-) )

My mom’s oldest daughter (me) and my Aunt Nanette’s oldest daughter (Margo) will now both be the mothers of multiples!  That means that The Fruitcake Sisters (a.k.a. my mom and my Aunt Nanette) will both be the grandmothers of multiples!!  I think that they need to get some matching crazy shirts made that say something funny about it.  Any fun ideas???

♥ Kimberly

oh and P.S.  I pretty much have been living on straight PB.  All-natural Krema crunchy PB of course, but most every thing else has made me sick.  These boys are already PB lovers “in utero!”  I love it!
