It's official, I'm obsessed with walnut butter. It's so good. And two spoonfuls mixed with a handful of chocolate chips?! Delightful; the perfect afternoon snack.
As we know, I have a lot of things that my body is sensitive too. I recently found out my blood type, and if you follow those "Eat for your blood type" diets, it makes a lot of sense why I don't handle certain goods well.
Well, as it turns out, of all the nuts, walnuts maybe are the best for me (or, said differently, my body best tolerates them), which is great, because I've always loved them!
However, as I get older, sometimes eating nuts and the subsequent little pieces that trickle through my digestive tract (like many other foods) can cause more irritation that I want (and sometimes migraines as a result). So, I decided to try walnut butter instead, because it's already ground down to a paste, so I figured maybe I'd have better luck.
Now, if you want something other than PB or Almond butter, it's not necessarily right on your grocery store shelf. I had to hunt for some walnut butter. I should also note it's expensive and comes in the tiniest of jars. However ... TOTALLY WORTH IT!
That said, I won't be able to eat it all the time because of the cost, but if that means enjoying a spoonful of nut butter becomes more of a special treat, then so be it! I can't say enough awesome things about it.
Hopefully you find your favorite nut butter, too!
Get yourself a high speed blender and you might pay only a third or even less for self made whatever nut butter.
