    Growing up I never had nut butters (other than those nutter butter cookies)! I’ve only recently discovered that I do in fact like this stuff. So far, I am a fan of almond butter but tahini is my favorite (does that count?). Would love more ideas than sticking it in bread or smoothies!

    Almond butter is my favorite! Walnut butter is a close second though. I like to mix them in to my morning oatmeal. 😀

    Peanut butter has always been my favorite but I would love to find a new one that’s healthier!!
