Mrs. Ca's Favorites

I thought I'd start sharing a few of my very favorite things, both food-wise and kitchen gadget-wise. This week is one of my all time favorite things:

PEANUT BUTTER.

I absolutely love peanut butter and I eat it almost every day. There are two things I particularly love with regards to peanut butter. First is Peanut Butter & Co.'s Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Peanut Butter. (Also - note to Aaron - I want this 6 variety pack for Mother's Day. Thanks.) I especially love it on a whole wheat bagel, or used in oatmeal peanut butter cookies .

Secondly, this is the most common way I eat peanut butter. Some may think it's weird, but I swear it's a delicious way to start the day. I present to you:

Peanut Butter Raisin Oatmeal

(Makes 2 Servings)

3/4 c. old fashioned oats

1 1/2 c. water

1/4 c. raisins

3 T. peanut butter

Bring water to a boil. Add in oats and raisins and boil for five minutes. Remove from heat and let sit for five minutes. Stir in peanut butter and serve.
