better than nut butter!

Ok. I’m sure there are many of you like me out there who go CRAZY with the nut butter. I did before raw, and I still do from time to time. Today I sprinkled some ground up flax seeds on my banana slices instead of half a jar of almond butter and it was FANTASTIC. it tasted great and was satisfying and is clearly healthier. Its so simple…so why didn’t I think of this before?

  • OH. and WAY cheaper!!!

  • Wow! I have the same issue with nut butter, I will definitely try that… Did you use brown or golden flax?

  • Ughh yeah I am a fiend with the nut butter. I wish I still ate bananas.

    Hmmm, sounds kinda neat. I rarely use nut butter, esp almond butter, seeing as by the price I think they must mix in gold!

    Not saying I don’t like it. Just don’t feel the urge for it!

    But this sounds like a nice easy and great way to get some omega fatty acids in!

  • rawjulie i believe they are golden flax seeds. and ardesmonde, it works just as well on apples (which is my other favorite w/ nutbutter)....and salads, and probably EVERYTHING. haha maybe I am too excited about this.

    Sounds interesting, I’ll have to give that a try! I have the same problem with nut butter. Just can’t stay away from that darn stuff. I’ve tried to back off and have them once every few months… If I didn’t, I think I’d be the size of a house by now! I can get a jar and it’ll end up gone within a few days. I’m sooo bad!!! haha

  • coconutty HAAH a few days after I come home from a workout or running I can down a whole jar if my wife doesn’t hide it.

    runraw you say on an apple to I have to try this tomorrow.

  • I love nut butters! I just can’t stay away from that freezer fudge full of almond butter. Guarantee you if there was 5 pounds of that fudge, it would all be gone in a day.
