Tidbit: Almond Butter vs. Peanut Butter
I am a lifelong lover of Peanut
Butter, but Almond Butter is a fun and healthy alternative to try. Almond
Butter is typically more expensive than Peanut Butter, but Sam’s Club helps
make it more affordable. Both are good sources of protein with different things to offer. Check out this comparison from Self:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Breakfast: Almond Butter & Jelly Sandwich (ABJ)
2 slices of Arnold’s Oat Nut
Bread
Almond Butter (somewhere bt 1-2
tbsp; it is somewhat harder to spread than creamy Peanut Butter)
2 tsp Apricot Jelly
5 oz. OJ
Regular Coffee, black
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Lunch: Vegetable Panang Curry
1 serving (2/3 cup) of Trader
Joe’s True Thai Panang Curry: Cauliflower, Carrots & Baby Corn in a Yellow
Coconut Cream Curry Sauce
With ½ cup Kidney Beans mixed in
½ Avocado, on the side
Iced Regular Coffee, black
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Snack:
¼ cup dry roasted, lightly salted Peanuts

Snack:
½ of a Dark Chocolate Mounds bar
My husband bought this and I
couldn’t say no when he offered to share it.
It was only after eating a couple bites that I looked at the wrapper and
saw the first ingredient is Corn Syrup!
I was already loving it way too much to stop eating, but generally I
would try to avoid this type of product and focus on finding good All Natural
Chocolate to enjoy.
In general food products made
with artificial flavors aren’t worth eating because they never taste as good as
the ‘real thing’. If you are going to
ingest the calories and fat, it’s better to enjoy it with the real flavor of
real ingredients. For example All
Natural Ice Cream is about 100x better than any Ice Cream made with Artificial
Flavors (do a taste test!) so if I’m going to indulge myself I make sure to
find the real thing and to savor every bite!

Dinner: Ultimate Chicken Nachos
Red Corn Tortilla Chips topped
with shredded Chicken, Lettuce, Black Olives, Salsa and Cheese Sauce (I didn't eat the Jalopenos!)
White Wine
This was not what I envisioned
when I ordered it and would have liked a lot more chicken on this; such is the
gamble when you eat out at a new place!

Dessert:
Passed on Ice Cream tonight, settled on just Wine
