There are many ways that you can add peanut butter to your diet. Peanut butter is also a great addition to any smoothie. The heart-healthy fats and fibre naturally found in peanut butter help make any protein packed smoothie more nutritionally balanced. When adding peanut butter to your smoothie, it is important to use the right kind of peanut butter.
All-natural, no sugar added peanut butter, like Smuckers.
I always warn clients about flavoured peanut butters (or nut butters for that matter) - especially honey and dark chocolate flavoured peanut butter. These sound healthy (and delicious) but they come with added sugars that negate any potentially added health benefit. Stick with natural, no sugar added peanut butter when making smoothies.
