Yeah... you read it right. Peanut butter may be calorie-dense, but let me list you what good stuff you get from it:

-Satiating and satisfying ... perfect for dieters.
-Quick and easy way to reduce your risk of heart disease.
-Affordable source of calories.
-Source of protein, needed to build and repair muscles.
-Reasonable source of vitamins, minerals and other health-protective food compounds.
-Contains fiber--not a lot (1 gram per tablespoon) but some.
-Contain mostly health-protective mono- and polyunsaturated fats.
-Caution: Poor source of the carbohydrates needed for muscle fuel. (but goes nicely with Bananas, Bread, Crackers, etc. wich will balance your meal)

Yea peanut butter is definately the way forward, I eat that stuff all the time. Had some last nite infact. The make peanut butter work for you, you have to limit it to about 1/2 to 1tbsp at a time.

Peanut butter is one of my favorites, right up there with tortillas.

I usually slice up celery and use peanut butter for 'dipping'. Another favorite is bananas and peanut butter. Oh and another is low carb-bread and peanut butter. And of course there's just peanut butter on the spoon.
