I’ve been eating a Paleo diet for close to a month now. Almond butter has been my favorite new discovery. It is amazing. I’ve been putting it in and on anything in sight. I feel sort of freakish telling people I am eating this way, but I feel great. I’m also doing Bikram Yoga 2-3x a week on top of my usual gig at Latitudes. Who knew working out could be a full-time job? Yikes. Regardless of whether you are eating Paleo or not, try this recipe! Your kids may love it too! Be cautious of nut allergies, of course!
ENJOY!
