Keeping the lid on a peanut butter snack isn’t as easy as hiding the jar of Skippy. November is National Peanut Butter Lover’s Month, but how can we chow down on this yummy spread without taking it to “Dangerfood” levels? The key here is moderation. Limit yourself (tough as it may be) to one serving of PB — about the size of a ping-pong ball — to enjoy the taste and protein and avoid consuming too much fat and sugar.

Do it Today: At lunchtime, stay healthy by sticking to one serving of peanut butter in your sandwich.
