Our Krema nut butters are just attracting attention like crazy lately! My Aunt Nanette has informed me that we recently had a “Culinary Nutrition Consultant” (sounds intense, doesn’t it?) create a couple of recipes for us using a few of our different nut butters. This Culinary Nutrition Consultant is Amie Valpone, HHP, AADP Nutritionist and author of The Healthy Apple, www.thehealthyapple.com.
Most of these new recipes involved ingredients like cashews and almonds so I haven’t actually tried making them in my kitchen yet (remember? my husband so inconsiderately is allergic to nuts ) and therefore I don’t have any fun amateur photos of my own to post. But here is one interesting and extremely healthy recipe for you to try today…
