Lately I’ve been introducing J to some of my random, gross food habits & quirks! And, to his credit, he has tried every single one!
1) I taught him how I like to eat sardines. (first split them open, pull out the spine & eat that first. then eat the little bodies)
2) He tried the ubiquitous pb on sweet potatoes! (potatoes were roasted in foil in the campfire – sooooo good!)
3) He already eats pb on bananas (he did this one on his own – it turns out it’s not just a blog thing!) But, he tried Justin’s chocolate pb on bananas last night!
Yeah, that doesn’t seem too adventurous, but just you wait …
4) We were standing in my kitchen eating the fruit & pb when I noticed the TJ’s basil plant sitting on my table. What if ….
Three is NOT a crowd.  Three is a PARTY IN MY MOUTH!!!
This was DELICIOUS!
Basil & nut butter. The odd couple that belong together!
I have a feeling I’ll be singing Aladdin all day long now haha Woohoo for Disney and freaky food combos!
I honestly think nut butters can make anything tasty…next thing you know you’ll see me posting about how it tastes great with tree bark or car tires hahaha! 😉
Have an awesome day!
hmmm…. tree bark ….. well, it does have lots of fiber! 😉
Awww cute — fun foodie adventures make a happy couple 😉
I’m just catching up on your blog now and I am SO SO SO HAPPY FOR YOU =) =)

This post is really so interesting and I loved your food combos! Nut butter is really something to experiment with different kinds of foods!! Great post!

nut butter is great to experiment – especially since it goes well with everything! 🙂
You have some crazy tastes girl….but I’m glad you found someone to share them with 😉
thank goodness he doesn’t mind my style of eating! case in point, dinner last night: we both ate out of one huge mixing bowl filled with steamed veggies, canned oysters, salsa, & anchovies! 🙂
As soon as I saw the title that’s the song I started to sing in my head! LOL
I’m glad he’s interested in some of your food styles 🙂 I think that’s awesome. Esepcially the PB and sweet potato. Oh my gosh people just don’t know what they’re missing out on!!
I must say I’ve never tried basil with PB but heck if I ever have some laying around maybe I will
you should definitely check it out! it was actually pretty darn good – it might be even better with some red pepper flakes or some anchovies … yup i am SO gross!
thats good stuff! i do that all the time with basil! wish you guys lived closer!!! I’d bring the marmite!
oh man, every time you bring up marmite i get a serious hankering! i need that in my life! you’re going to be surrounded by it soon, though!
dude, brilliant thought: you CAN’T go to new zealand w/out a trip to ca first! 🙂
I can always could on you to be adventurous!
adventurous & pleasantly surprised! 🙂
um basil and nut butter acutally sounds awesome!!
oh it was great! i’m already thinking of more ways to combine the two again!
