National Peanut Butter Month

 Did you know that the average American consumes more then six pounds of peanuts and peanut butter products each year? Honestly, I think my family might eat more then that! ;) I am so excited to be in the third month of the Hormel Foods Extended Blogger Program. (See previous posts here, here, &; here).  With March being national peanut butter month, I knew as soon as I saw this months products I wanted to try a new recipe. Here is what Hormel sent me for my March Products:Yes, you see dark chocolate and honey flavored peanut butter! I headed over to the Skippy website to see what I could make using these and I decided to try the recipe for Peanut Butter & Banana Dippin' . This recipe calls for smooth peanut butter, but I used the chocolate one instead to mix it up! Here is what you need:Ingredients:1/4 cup peanut butter2 medium bananas, mashed1 cup sliced strawberries1 medium apple, slicedDirections: Mix it all together in a bowlOk, this stuff is AMAZING! They recommend that you use celery when making this with regular peanut butter, but I used chocolate so I wanted to try some other items.  We used apples, graham crackers, and even toast!  What's your favorite way to enjoy peanut butter-baked goods, sandwiches, or strait up?*I am currently a member of the Hormel Foods Extended Blogger Program and this post is part of my involvement in the Group.
