Remember my Hot Tamale socks? I finished them a few weeks ago (finally) and didn't get around to posting a picture of them (not unlike how we haven't gotten around to grouting the kitchen floor either, so please try to ignore that.)
They are nothing special, but at least they are done.
Which brings me to the tofu. (wasn't that a smooth transition to a new subject??!!)
I found a really good recipe for a Peanut Butter spread made with tofu. WAIT! Don't run away. Stay with me here - I promise, it's worth it.
Peanut butter is so yummy but it is so high in calories that it's a diet wrecker. But it's so yummy. It also has a ton of fat. Did I mention that it's yummy?
This recipe is a perfect one if you've never tried tofu before or think you don't like tofu. It's great to spread on apples and celery.
Peanut Butter Dip
1/2 cup silken tofu (1/3 container)
1/2 cup peanut butter
Puree peanut butter with a blender or in food processor until smooth. Blend in the peanut butter until mixed well.
Use for apple dip, celery, etc.
Servings: 8
Serving size: 2 Tbsp.
Keeps 5-7 days in refrigerator

Love the socks!!
And, speaking of socks, I've never had tofu, but I mix my peanut butter with fat-free cream cheese. So, the same general idea, but I usually just use it on English muffins.
