Almond Butter


So everyone knows that nuts are good for you. Studies have shown people who eat 3 oz of nuts a day have significantly lowered their chances of heart disease and weigh less than those who don't. Almonds are particularly good for those people who are allergic to peanuts. They're sweeter than peanuts, which makes almond butter a more dessert/snack friendly option. 

Take whole "raw" almonds and blend them in a food processor until thick and creamy. I personally like to eat it either with a spoon or on banana or apple slices. Almonds help you to lose fat and retain muscle. They are particularly helpful at satisfying your hunger because of the fats in them.
