Many of you know that I'm not a big fan of peanut butter (meaning that I never eat it unless it's packed with sugar and surrounded by chocolate in a reese's cup!). I've finally found some alternatives. My friend, Sally, told me in college that I should try almond butter - a few months ago I finally gave it a try! And it's amazing! Unfortunately, some grocery stores either don't carry it or only carry the organic brand that cost $20+ for a jar! So, recently, I found sunflower seed butter. If possible, it's even more amazing than almond butter - and it costs about the same as peanut butter. So far, I've only eaten these new finds with apples as a snack. I haven't ventured into sandwiches with jelly yet - one step at a time...
