Office meals are tough. Whether you bring something from home, buy something near your office, or are lucky enough to have meals provided for you, everyone needs a couple of all-star ingredients at their desk to make things more appetizing or easy to prepare.

My favorite thing to have on hand is powdered peanut butter. As Faith explained a couple years ago, powdered peanut butter is “essentially powdered peanuts that have been pressed to remove much of the oil and fats. Theoretically this leaves the taste, but reduces the fat and calories, leaving you with a peanut powder that can be reconstituted in water.” Popular brands include PB2, Peanut Butter Co., PBfit, and Just Great Stuff. You can find powdered peanut butter at health stores like GNC, certain grocery and wholesale stores, and online. It’s light and portable, doesn’t spoil or smell, and it’s versatile enough to complement anything from pad Thai to oatmeal.
