My favorite nut butter that I've just grown to absolutely LOOOVE is trader joes unsalted ALMOND BUTTER!! I've been having almond butter everyday on my diet, either for breakfast, or a snack, or dinner. I switch it up a bit but I love it on my whole wheat toast or fruits!

Now.. KASHI lovers! For dinner (yes I know, dinner lol) I had one Kashi Whole Grain waffle with a table spoon of almond butter & fresh cut strawberries. It was delicious, filling & only 200 cals lol :) and kashi's go lean cereals are delicious!!

I was wondering if having almond butter everyday is a bad thing? I know it's MUCH healthier than peanut butter but I always remain at my 1,200 calorie intake per day :) it's just so delicious!

    daily nut butter is fine in my opinion. I have peanut butter daily and I'm fine.

    Have a great Friday!

    I think you've suggested putting it on crackers before?

    Any kind of nut butter is awesome, and if you eat it everyday, that's perfect.

    I wouldn't go so far as to say almond butter is MUCH healthier than peanut butter though. Just different strokes for different folks. Maybe what you're referring to is the typical peanut butter most people buy with added hydrogenated oils and high fructose corn syrup... but I buy natural chunky peanut butter and eat it like it's going out of style! :-)

    I don't think it is "much better" then peanut butter, but eating almond butter everyday is very healthy as long as you are within your calorie goals and getting a proper mix of nutrients.
