So simple, so delicious, so good for you!
Almond butter and cut up apples...it may look like toddler time, but this is a great snack for anyone.  To get the benefits of this healthy snack just make sure you are using natural almond butter.  This is as simple as reading the label.  Natural almond butter consists of two ingredients, almonds and salt. You usually have to stir it and keep it in the fridge, but it's well worth the benefits.
Done right, this snack is high in protein, fiber and tastes great!

 

 

Almond butter is a popular spread for breads, veggies, and crackers. Many people like to use almond butter as an alternative to peanut butter. If you are considering this nut spread for your breakfast or as a snack, you will find that it offers many benefits. Almond butter is good for the heart, blood sugar, and weight control.

 

Almond butter is filled with antioxidants including vitamin E and flavonoids. A tablespoon of almond butter contains about 4 mg of vitamin E, which is a little over 1/4 of your daily recommended amount. Vitamin E is good for the skin and blood circulation. Both vitamin E and flavonoids are great at fighting free radicals in the blood and protecting cells from oxidation damage. These antioxidants can also help keep you looking young and can strengthen the immune system.
