Weird peanut butter combinations?
What are the most unexpected foods that taste good with peanut butter? I'm not talking about bacon (we know that one), but what about cheddar cheese, fried eggs, anchovies? Share your ideas, please :)

Son: peanut butter and fresh tomato
Never tried it with relish though.
3 Tbsp peanut butter powder
1 ½ Tbsp fish sauce
Juice from 2 limes
2 tsp Asian chili garlic sauce
2 crushed garlic cloves
1 tsp coconut palm sugar
2 Tbsp shelled peanuts, ground in a mortar and pestle
Stir to combine. If the sauce is too thin for you, just add more peanut powder bit by bit until it thickens to your liking. This is an easy way to make peanut sauce for satay.
I also make peanut butter cookies with bacon crushed up inside.
Use it in making a tamarind relish that is used to make tamarind rice.. The can go on & on..

FOr the soup, for me at least, it's got to be Campbell's tomato soup. One can of it made with only HALF a can (NOT a whole can) of MILK (not water).
After heating the soup, dunk the strip tips into it and eat before it gets soggy, then dip again.
It may sound gross, but trust me, it is soooooooo good! The flavors go together so well!
Chop up a couple of onions, about 2 table spoons of ginger, and 2 cloves of garlic, and a couple of green chili pepper.
In a pressure cooker cook the vegetables a bit...then add the spices to bloom them. Add about 3 lbs of chicken thighs or other parts bone in and skin on.
Add a large can of whole tomatoes drained.
Add 1/2 cup of peanut butter mixed with a bit of stock.
add about 3 cups of chicken stock
add 2 cans of chick peas.
1 lemon cut in half and juiced.
Pressure cook for 35 mins..adjust seasoning. (I add a few tablespoons of tahini) add a bag of fresh spinach and wilt that down. Serve with basmati rice and cilantro and lime wedges on the side.
/option...use 1 can of full fat coconut milk for part of the broth which should cover the chicken.
Probably doesn't qualify as "wierd," but peanut butter with lime juice, fish sauce, a tiny splash of soy sauce and a pinch of sugar mixed in makes a quick, tasty dip for crusty dry-roasted bite-sized chunks of tofu. ;o)
I used to eat carrots with peanut butter all the time when I was in college.
Marshmallows dipped in peanut butter.
I've been thinking for a while about thinning out some peanut butter and pouring it over popcorn.
Not very unusual but spread with cream cheese on a graham cracker.
On saltines and then dipped in tomato soup.
Can you tell that I love peanut butter!
