I love eating peanut butter with celery as part of my diet plan for meal #4. Rarely am I satisfied though with 2 tbsp of peanut butter which comes out to 200 calories. I eat as much celery as I want but still it’s not the same without peanut butter. I recently came up with a new lower calorie fall dip for my celery and apples that I have been dying to share with all you. I think you are going to fall in love with it. It’s called Pumpkin Peanut Butter and it has 110 calories for 3 whopping tablespoons (you can obviously double this recipe for just 220 calories and 6 tablespoons as well).
