Today was filled with peanut butter. It's not too far of a stretch from our regular days because we are always eating PB in this house!
Welcome to our Peanut Butter Adventure!
For breakfast we had some
Leapin Lemurs!!
A chocolate & pb cereal.
It's organic so it's healthy right?!?
HA
HA
For morning snack we made some crackers with PB!
Lunch time of course, we made some PB & J's
We were going to make some PB cookies but we knew Daddy would eat them ALL!
We went with PB Popcorn!
Yes, you did read that correct!
I found the recipe on All Recipes.com
The Boys had a great time helping out. They had even more fun enjoying the rest of the afternoon snacking on it. I don't know how they don't have belly aches between all that snacking and all the marshmallows they had to "sneak" by me.
Lets get started!
All you need is popcorn, PB, brown sugar, butter, marshmallows and a few PB lovers!
I have 5 of them around here if you count our pups!
So first take - 1 stick of butter
(the recipe called for margarine but we just have butter.)
Second add - a 1/2 of a bag of mini marshmallows
(the recipe called for 12 large but we only had a bag of minis)
Third add - 3/4 cup brown sugar
It's always a bonus to have a little helper.
Once you add all 3 ingredients in the bowl you are going to put it in the microwave for 1 minute.
You may need to add a few more second in the microwave, just make sure you do it in 30 second intervals until it's all melted. I think I only had to put it in for another 30 seconds.
It came out like this at 1 minute
The marshmallows were puffy and the butter was just about melted.
Stir it, then stick it back in if you need to. This was where I added the extra 30 seconds.
Once you have it all melted and mixed - Add 1/2 cup PB.
(the recipe calls for 1/4 cup but it didn't taste like peanut butter really, it was more sweet so I added that extra 1/4 c and it came out nice. It wasn't too sweet)
Once you had added all the PB - Drizzle on the yum!
Enjoy!
I got a YUM MOM & a THUMBS UP!
At this point I think we are ALL peanut buttered out!
I think we will skip a PB dinner and maybe have a little more PB Popcorn for a bedtime snack.
