So, I have seen people mention it and saw it in the store today and bit the bullet and bought some.

When I tasted it, yes, it is really good. But, what do you do with it?

I guess I am looking for some ideas other than almond butter and jelly or spread it on bread or a cracker.

So, what do YOU do with almond butter?

    I smear it on pinecones to make birdfeeders.

    I like mine best on toast.
    Oh, how about for a filling for celery sticks??

    I eat it off a spoon, on apples, with bananas, in smoothies, on toast, with jelly on a sandwich.

    I tried it on a pinecone, but it got stuck in my teeth.

    and, basically, almond butter works perfect anywhere you use peanut butter...so, sandwiches, toast, smoothies, etc etc

    Add it to your oatmeal...

    Add it to a smoothie

    As mentioned, it's really just another nut butter like peanut butter I don't know why people really think it's that much better!

    (PS. Places like Whole Food's have "grind your own" nut butter available and it's cheaper than buying a jar already made...or even better, by the almonds and pop them in a food processor until ground, add oil if you want it smoother!)

    I've heard a lot of good things about it too, I'm wondering what are the calories in it?

    I love almond butter! I put it on sliced apples, bananas, mix it in oatmeal, put it on rice cakes (sometimes with jam), eat it in wraps. YUM!
