Smart Beat has a new PB coming out that is supposed to be all natural. I have not seen it in stores locally yet, but I really want to try it. I love the Smart Beat Fat Free Mayo. If you have not tried it, it is fantastic, and only 10 cal for a tablespoon.

Becca - a good protein fix is 3 eggs whites scrambled and I top it off with about a tablespoon of salsa. Of course, I'm now aware of all the sodium in egg whites and I'm not too happy...but it works.

Also, you can do a Slim Fast Optima..oops...I mean an LA Slimdown...and that counts as 1 protein and a starch (I find these great for those on the fly mornings!

As far as Peanut Butter, I like the Better'n Peanut Butter (sorry, but I got it at Trader Joes). I think it's really good. 2T have 100 calories, 2.5g of fat, 95 mg of sodium, 13g Carb and 4g protein. It's all natural, no saturated or trans fats, gluten free, dairy free, no preservatives...(website is betternpeanutbutter.com).

Joni,

As usual...awesome advice! I had read a post somewhere about the Better'n Peanut Butter, and I am pretty sure I saw it in a grocery store here the other day...have to remember which one, as I visit so many these days, trolling for the freshest produce!!!

I appreciate the recommendation, and my dh appreciates the suggestion on egg whites & salsa, as he is a huge salsa fan!!
