Celebrate National Peanut Butter Day
March 1, 2015 by DarcieToday is National Peanut Butter Day in the U.S. Yes, we have a “day” for almost every food known to mankind, but this one is especially fun because, well, it’s peanut butter. From fond memories of childhood lunches to being the secret ingredient in a chili recipe, peanut butter holds a special place in our hearts. It’s a pantry staple in over 90% of American households and the average person eats more than six pounds of peanut products each year.
Over at indexed blog Food52, they are trying unusual peanut butter pairings and making recommendations on which you should try. These range from peanut butter and jelly omelets (not recommended) to peanut butter on a burger (okay, but it’s difficult to swallow), to a sandwich with peanut butter, mayonnaise, pickle, and iceberg lettuce (surprisingly not too bad).
You don’t have to try an unusual combination to celebrate the day. Instead, you can make one of these highly-rated peanut butter recipes from the EYB Library:
