tell me about peanut butter

I always have room for calories and one spoonful is just enough to curb my sweet tooth and I get the Protein boost I need also.

I prefer almond butter over Peanut Butter because it is a healthier nut. I usually only eat almond butter as a snack with crackers, on fruit, or in my Protein shakes. 1-2 spoon fulls are more than enough for daily intake.

Almond butter is way more expensive, but investing in our health is important. I purchase my almond butter from the organic store for about $8.99. It lasts forever!

Here are some fun facts. Which ever you decide, make sure it is all natural unsalted.

You could invest in a food processor, if you don't already have one, and make your own "nut" butters. I make all of mine, including hummus from scratch, this way I know exactly what I am putting into my body. If you are craving something sweet try adding a little bit of agave Syrup to natural PB.
