These will keep for about 4 days of major munching. Munch plain or serve with a homemade or bottled low-fat dressing or dip. Almond and soy nut butter are popular, and they taste great, which is nifty news especially for people who are allergic to peanuts. Nut butters can be made from raw or roasted nuts, contain salt or be salt free, be crunchy or creamy. Nut butters can also be made from scratch using a food processor, blender, or other household gadget.
Some juicers come with nut-butter attachments.
Most nut butters are a good source of protein and tahini packs calcium as well. Go easy, though, since nut butters are high in fat, and too much of a good thing is not good. Warm some fat-free refried beans topped with salsa and serve with baked tortilla chips. A little organic sour cream or non-dairy sour cream on the top or on the side is a great addition. You won't miss the oil, extra salt, or other junk with all these lively natural flavors zipping around in your mouth.
